Director’s Corner

Happy New Year Everybody! January is a new start when people sometimes make resolutions, plans or maybe try something new. Here at the Senior Center, we are starting a few new programs such as the Tax Work Off Program for 2026. Consider applying for the program. We could use some cleaning assistance and outdoor gardening help at the Senior Center for example.  

The Lifelong Learning kicks off a brand-new schedule starting late January to help you beat the winter doldrums!  Along with Lifelong Learning we have a Winter Scene Felting class coming up that looks like fun or maybe you’d be interested in “Bird’s Winter Strategies with Mass Audubon. Speaking of birds, we are considering starting a birding group of some sort. Right now, we are simply looking for names of those that might be interested in attending. So please leave your name at the front desk and we will contact you once we have a group.  

The Senior Center will host an Eversource Presentation on energy saving tips, which is part of our Triad Group on the 14th of January. We will also have an educational presentation on Medicare Advantage Plans at the end of the month. In addition, we will be gearing up for Income Tax Season which will formally kick off in February. 

Hope you have a happy and healthy 2026, 

Carol
