You never know who you’ll meet at the Georgetown Seniors Centre
Friday July 25 2008

What a nice surprise I had at the Georgetown Seniors Centre! I not only met some new friends but a former student of mine. I’d rather not believe she is old enough to be a 55+ senior. Actually she had brought her mother to attend the foot clinic.
Which brings up another point? The Centre has a foot clinic the fourth Friday of every month. If you have some bunions, corns, or your toe nails need clipping make an appointment with Diane Renko at 905-877-2026.
A reminder that your Seniors’ Centre, along with other locations in Town, collects old batteries. This is an opportunity to do something to help save this old planet of ours.
We are sorry to hear that Greg has resigned his position with the Centre and decided to move on to bigger and better things. We all wish you well in your new endeavours. The Centre will not seem quite the same without your warm greetings and hugs.
The call is out for some new volunteers for the lunch teams. It involves your time for a couple of hours about once every three months, setting tables, cleaning up, and serving from the buffet table. Your help is needed to carry on the lunch program.
There are some new programs to start in September. Keep your eyes peeled for the news. A “Toonie” movie afternoon is in the planning. Your toonie gets you in to see the movie, popcorn and a drink. How can you resist such a deal!
A great turnout for T’ai Chi practice on Wednesdays throughout the summer. Tess will be proud of us when she comes back in September. We know she is not well and wish her only the best as she deals with her health issues.
Just an early reminder that the Centre will be closed Monday, August 4th for Civic Holiday.
The Centre has been anything but quiet these summer months. Drop in programs continue, construction continues, lots of new goings on. Why not drop in and see for yourself! Maybe I’ll be there and we can have a coffee together.
