2016 Quarterly Report
AW'A
We have seen many changes in the last 10 months, have made new friends, and
unfortunately had to say goodbye to some dear friends. But the one thing that stays
constant is the commitment to providing excellent programs and service for our growing
55+active adult population.
We did a lot in-house to keep our guests entertained and busy...
• Be a "Super Hero"was the theme for National Park and Recreation Month in July--- The staff
hosted programs around this theme including weekly themed lunches, Superhero movie, potluck
Bingo and Superhero games and ice cream social.
• We celebrated Elvis Week in August and invited a championship winner to do his Elvis Tribute
show at our weekly luncheon.
• We offered monthly educational seminars: health, financial and legal seminars, Flu Shot Clinic,
and a Q&A with Senior Health Service Providers
• Have secured monthly Technology classes
• Potluck Bingo is popular as ever and our sponsor has been very generous with the prizes
• Monthly movies are still a big hit
• The Bridge lessons offered by our senior members have been received very well
• Cooking class with Alice and Veena has brought cultures together
We were able to travel to....
