SENIOR CENTER NEWS

Hi everyone! I hope you all had a good 4th of July. I’m writing this on Monday evening and the fireworks are beginning to sound off. I’m also hearing a little thunder in the distance. I hope the fireworks at Huff Lorang Park don’t get rained out even though we could sure use some rain.

Meals were delivered last week by Pt Brewer, Sharon Barnes, Curt and Brenda Stein, Janice Hiis and Vernon Brickman.

Gene Matli brought us some nice cucumbers last week. Thank you, Gene. We also received a good donation from the Saturday Night Music and Games group. We appreciate them sharing the donations they receive from those that attend their get-togethers. It all helps. Next Saturday evening, the 9th, we’ll be meeting again from 6pm to 9pm. Come in and join us in some fun games, music, and food.

On Friday, the 15th, from 10:30am to noon, we’ll have nurses here to check blood pressures and blood sugars. Be sure to come in and get yours checked. It doesn’t cost anything an no appointment is needed.

The numbers have been good for exercise lately. They are averaging about 20 each day. They meet on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 9am. Come in and join us.

If you like to read, we have a large number of books of all kinds that can be taken out to read. We also have some magazines you can take out.

We always have a big puzzle out to be worked on. We have several you can go through and take one home to work on.

The quilters were in last Thursday and finished up the quilt in the frame. They removed it and now there’s another one in. It was done by Marsha Matli. It’s twinsize quilt, very colorful. You are welcome to come in and work on it. Last week it was Judy Curtin, Gene Matli, Naida Kerr and Estalene Teply. Here’s our menu for the next few days. Come in and join us for lunch. We eat about 11:45am except for Wednesdays. Kiwanis meets at noon that day, so we eat at 11am. Call us before 10 am for a meal to be delivered, or before noon for a meal to be picked up.
