Movie: Blind Side
This movie starring Sandra Bullock and Tim McGraw is based on the True Story about Michael Oher a homeless African-American youngster from a broken home, taken in by the Touhys, a well-to-do white family who help him fulfill his potential. At the same time, Oher’s presence in the Touhys’ lives leads them to some insightful self-discoveries of their own. Living in his new environment, the teen faces a completely different set of challenges to overcome. As a football player and student, Oher works hard and, with the help of his coaches and adopted family, becomes an All-American offensive left tackle. This will be shown in Closed Caption on August 12th at 12:45pm.

Join us on August 23rd at 1:00 pm as local residents Janet Cody and Val Hazlin present a program entitled “Raising Guide Dogs.”  This free interactive program will involve real guide dogs in training.

After working for the City of Norwich for the past 21 years, 13 being with the Rose City Senior Center, Anne is retiring.  Anne has been a very dedicated member of the Senior Center team as our Office Coordinator and handled such tasks as payroll, the VOICES monthly newsletter, accounts payable, MED RIDE II scheduling, our website and several other duties that generally go unnoticed by the general public, but have led to many successful programs and services for the Senior Center.  Her hard work, creativeness and dedication to serve the seniors of our community will be greatly missed.

Please join us on Wednesday, August 31st between the hours of Noon and 2pm for some cake and refreshments as we celebrate her Retirement.
