Best Wishes to Camille Lord

Thank you and BEST WISHES to longtime Line Dancing instructor, Camille Lord.  Camille has decided to step aside from teaching our Line Dancing class on Mondays

and we wanted to extend our sincere gratitude to her for being a huge part of our center for so long.

With that said, Dance Country has agreed to take over the Line Dancing instruction for us.  Our group will be led by Margaret Carroll, who led the class during Camille’s break last winter.

A BIG Thank You to Tim Baffaro for the wonderful Holiday Entertainment he provided in December!  Tim is a former member of the Rose City Senior Center and was active in the Golden Nuggets and Roseland Combo.  The delightful musical entertainment, including a holiday sing-a-long and songs performed by Tim on the trumpet, was enjoyed by all.  Thank you Tim for the wonderful afternoon!

It’s Cold & Flu Season

If you are not feeling well, please stay home until you are symptom free!

You will be helping other Senior Center members as well as the Senior Center staff stay healthy by keeping out of the Senior Center and staying home until you are feeling better.

By taking some time away from the Senior Center, seeing your physician and resting, you will hopefully improve your health and get better faster while helping to maintain the health of others.

Thank you for doing your part and staying home if you are not feeling well!

2020 – Ideas and Suggestions

Happy New Year Everyone!  I would like to thank everyone who participated in events, took classes and went on trips with the Rose City Senior Center in 2019.  With your participation, it was a fantastic year!  Now that 2020 is upon us, we look forward to continue offering affordable trips, great classes and interesting programs.  Hopefully this will offer something for everyone looking for a little “adventure”!

This year will bring some changes with upcoming trips.  I will be using a new bus company for future coach bus trips.  As always, I will try to keep costs down but switching to a new bus company will likely increase prices.  Please bear with me as I try to find the most affordable company to work with.

As I continue to plan for 2020, I would like your input!  If you have a suggestion for a trip or if you have been on a prior trip and would be interesting in repeating it, please let me know!  You can drop off your ideas at the Reception desk or in the comment box located outside of the Pool Room.

Thank you to everyone for your participation!    Hilary Sandberg, Program Administrator
