Happy New Year to all and I wish each of you a happy and healthy 2017. This year, you may see some changes around the Center as we try to spruce up the place, re-doing the craft room and having shading added to the front wall of windows by the pool tables. We will be focused on trying to increase the number of people who know about our senior center and services, so please tell your friends and family about what the Office for Older Adults has to offer! We welcome any suggestions for community outreach or new programming. Thanks to all of you who have supported us for years. We look forward to another wonderful year full of good times and great events!
