Hello everyone, Spring is coming! The good news is many of you have had at least one and some of you have had both of your vaccine doses. For the rest of you it won’t be long now! More good news is the Senior Center has reopened. The first in-person activities available are the member “dropins.” Activities will also continue to be offered virtually for those who are not ready to return in-person. Even more programing will be available in April. Ceramics, Knitting, Mah Jongg and Canasta classes will be back again with protocols similar to those we followed last fall. We will host two Movie and Lunches each month and Bingo and Tech Workshops will take place monthly. Don’t forget to join us at the Virtual Coffee Chat. These fun and informal discussions will continue to take place every Thursday from 3-4pm. If you need the link, call or email me. I look forward to seeing you soon!
