Spring Has Sprung! 

April is a hopeful and happy time of year with more sunlight and warmer temperatures. It is a good opportunity for us to start planning outdoor activities like pickleball, bocce, trail walks, gardening, and trips. In fact, we are looking for someone who would help us teach or organize some bocce games, so give us a call if you can help. We will be adding a second bocce court for future competitions along with other new amenities to improve the park area by early summer.  We would also like to start a monthly birding group. If you or anyone you know has some interest or knowledge about birding, we would love to get this activity underway. 

If the April showers do persist, we have plenty of great activities indoors, such as Lifelong Learning kicking off on the 14th. We are also very excited about partnering with the North and South River Watershed Association which begins on April 28th for 4 programs. If you like music we will have a coffee house music and history presentation with Andrew Lewis, sponsored by the Massachusetts Cultural Council. Then, on the 22nd to celebrate Earth Day, we will have a spring gardening presentation with lots of ideas and information. 

April also commemorates National Volunteer Month, which is very important to the Senior Center. Our volunteers support a wide array of functions that help to provide essential services and programs in the community. We would like to thank and congratulate the volunteers for all of their dedication and efforts on behalf of our seniors. We invite our volunteers to drop by and have coffee and cookies in the dining room on Tuesday, April 21st from 9-11. Consider bringing a friend or family member along who might like to volunteer too!

Looking forward to seeing everyone, 

Carol
