A new tournament has come to the center, Rummikub! After being
introduced to us by one of our members it has become the game to play.
Tuesday, February 4th at 9am will be the first ever tournament. As with all of our tournaments you must know how to play
to enter. There will be a prize to the winner. If you don’t know how to play come by the center and join a game on
any day to learn. See Jan for more details on the rules of the tournament.
Above: Many people turned out for our annual Martin Luther King Presentation by Jan Graves. The presentation was both interactive and informative. We hoped people left with a renewed feeling to be of service to their community, that is
what his holiday is meant to encourage us to do.
Right: Was one of your new year resolutions to be healthier? If it was, why not come out on Friday morning
to our Arthritis Exercise class. Not only will you get exercise tailored to seniors with or without arthritis but
you will have tons of FUN!
