BOO! Just wanted to get the last one in before we started hearing the “Gobble, Gobble, Gobbles,” followed by the “Ho, Ho, Ho’s.”
We are sure all of you have memories of hearing these sounds in the past. Please, take the time to write these memories down. So many wonderful family times are lost. Telling stories of how you spent the holidays is one way to introduce family history to the grandchildren and great grandchildren.
SPECIAL NOTICE! Please turn your clocks back on Sunday before you go to bed! Otherwise, you will be late for all the wonderful things going on at the Center.

Tuesdays are always busy at the Center. The boys are playing pool, the ladies are intensely active in Silver Sneakers (10:45-11:45), the smells from the kitchen remind us of lunch at 11:45 and we are looking forward to game night from 6-9 and playing Hand and Foot, Mexican Train Dominoes, Pool,Mahjong and Cribbage.
