          The current weather pattern we’ve experienced for the past few months is nothing like what we’ve experienced before, at least that I remember.  Excessive heat, storms, downpours, and flooding are weekly events.  Continue to monitor the weather forecasts and be careful!  Through the next few months continue to keep hydrated and go outside and get some sun, but in moderation!

          We want to give a special shout-out to our tremendously dedicated volunteers.  The senior center could not operate on a daily basis and provide you with the services, programs, and activities that you deserve without them!  Our volunteers provide a tremendous service to our senior community.  A Huge Oxford Area Senior Center “THANK YOU” to each one! 

          Please read thru this newsletter and see the fun activities, programs, and trips we have planned.  Only a few seats remaining on some of the bus trips! 

          Be sure to read Sally’s informational article on page 3 about identity theft and the many fraudulent scams that could affect you. Please take time to protect yourself by reading this article, along with the other helpful informational articles throughout this newsletter and be sure to check out the daily activities we offer on page 5.

          Page 11 discusses the center’s upcoming fundraiser beginning August 1st.  We’re selling $9.00 Kreider’s Market Sub Sale Tickets.  Help us if you can.  The funds raised go directly to providing the programs and activities you enjoy here at the center.  There will be no yard sale this year.

 

Come and join us!
Please continue to be safe!
Stay Happy and Healthy!!

September is National Senior Center Month. 

            Stop by and see what’s going on in your senior center.  We have activities and games before and after our noon-time congregate lunch, blood pressure checks on the 2nd & 4th Wednesdays between 10-11AM, bingo every Wednesday after lunch except the 3rd Wednesday, when we have our birthday party, and much more.  Informative and educational programs regarding health, nutrition, current events, cupcake decorating, flower arranging, and scams directly pertaining to the senior population are also presented.

          Don’t let the fall months catch you unprepared for the chilly weather.  Check your heating systems to see if the filter needs to be changed, your furnace needs cleaned or serviced, and the pilot lights are lit and working properly.

          Join us for our noontime lunches.  Chef Jim puts together some fantastic meals, so please do yourself a favor and join us!  You’ll need to make a reservation two days in advance.  If you can’t get here to sign up for lunch, just call our Hostess Desk and they can reserve a lunch for you.  We sometimes have cancellations, so if you’d like to come for lunch and haven’t reserved one, call to see if we have any openings.  If you do have a lunch reservation and can’t attend, please call us and cancel so we can provide it for someone else.

          Our entire staff looks forward to assisting you with your needs.

Come and join us!
Please continue to be safe!
Stay Happy and Healthy!!
