Dear Members,
I want to express a hardy thank you to all those that attended your town meetings approving additional monies that we needed to build our senior center. Your presence was overwhelming and appreciated! Although we do not yet have a specific date for our groundbreaking ceremony, I have been informed that it will be sometime mid-May. We will send out an email as soon as we know in hopes that you can attend.
On a different note, we have now officially been out of our building for 6 months. During this time our members have been so flexible and have accommodated the changes in locations well so thank you. A special thank you to all of the organizations that have helped keep our community active and intact. These include The First Congregational Church of Old Lyme, Saint Ann’s Episcopal Parish, Roger’s Lake Clubhouse, Lyme Library, Old Lyme Library, Lymewood, Dance Studio of Old Lyme, & Old Lyme Town Hall. In the future we will also be using Soundview Bocce Courts, Florence Griswold Museum Grounds, and Christ the King Church.
Our Outdoor Summer Concert Series will take place at the Florence Griswold Museum Grounds and we will be co-hosting the event with them. The concert dates will be Friday, July 5th, Thursday, July 11th, Thursday July 18th, and Friday July 26th. The Flo Gris will have a food truck on site for these concerts. Please see next month’s newsletter for more details.
For the months of June and July our lunches will be held at Christ the King Church on Tuesdays,
Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Hope you can join us there!
Best regards,
Stephanie Gould, Lymes’ Senior Center Director
