Welcome Back! We have been waiting so long to say that to you all. We know that some of you are still
concerned with COVID even with the vaccines. Please be assured that we continue with our extensive cleaning and
we encourage you to wear a mask if it makes you feel more comfortable.
Staff have been diligently working during this past year on virtual programming,
drive through events and parking lot events. We also have received grants or
Project Lifesaver a program for persons with dementia/Alzheimer’s who
wander. This is a police search and rescue program using radio bracelets. Also we
will continue Community First Meals once a month through the summer. This
program created by Kathy Williams has received national recognition with a
Program of Excellence award from the National Institute of Senior Centers.
One of the unfortunate realities from the pandemic is that finances at the center
are going to be very tight for the next few years. You will see that class prices have
gone up slightly to keep up with increased costs. Pricing has not increased for
many years at the center and we had hoped not to do this. Please feel free to speak to me if you are feeling the
financial burden and we can discuss options for you.
We have also had to say goodbye to several instructors due to the pandemic. Julie Oliver, fitness instructor/
personal trainer, Liz McGee, watercolor instructor and Carol Dunn, Zentangle instructor have moved on to
other things. We wish them all well.
Again, we are so happy to see you all and hope you enjoy being back at the center.
