Claremont Senior Center News: May 15, 2021

Hi everyone. Well, the sun finally got here. It’s about time. The flowers at the Center are saying “Thank

You!” And so are we. We have few things to tell you this week, so let’s get started.

Thank you to all those great souls who donated blood on Monday. It is always heartwarming to see people give a little bit of themselves to help others. Every month, donors come to the Center to gift someone in need. Thanks from those you helped.

Tip toe through the tulips. Your footsies and toesies will enjoy a bit of pampering after the walk. Our VNA Foot Clinic has two more times at the Center this month on Wednesday, May 19, and Wednesday, May 26. Call (603) 748-1731 for an appointment.

Our volunteers in the kitchen are just great. They work on the Roast Turkey Dinner on Saturday, May 15, then they produce meals for Tuesday and Thursday. What a crew! Here is the menu:
