A Note From Your Director There is no “summertime, and the living is easy” around here this summer. We

are busier than ever, and your whole staff is loving every minute of it. I know you

are going to be excited to read about everything we’ve got going on in June, like

outdoor dining, horse races, festivals, Benny Goodman music, our new Active

Minds programming, a tea, the Baby Shower, and even a behind-the-scenes glimpse

at what happens after you cast your ballot in Douglas County. It all makes me wish

I was retired so I could join you in all the fun.

Besides the activity programming, there are some other awesome things I wish

to let you know about. We are celebrating our 45th Anniversary with an event on

June 16th (see below). I am honored to know that I have played a role in the legacy

of the Castle Rock Senior Activity Center, and look forward to many more years of

our organization serving seniors. I give a special shout out to all of you for 45 years

of memories. I look forward to reading your poems (see page 14).

We welcome a new member to the Executive Board. Jim Johnson was

appointed to fill the open 2nd Vice President position. He is already being kept

busy on our Golf Tournament Committee, which is hard at work soliciting sponsors

and players for our very exclusive event at the Air Force Academy on September

1st. If you golf, or know anyone who does, this is a tournament not to be missed,

because of the location. And, you know it’s for a good cause - seniors! Please help

us spread the word. Thank you to our enthusiastic committee.

Last, I was thrilled to receive a phone call that we have been chosen as the

Business of the Month for June by the Castle Rock Chamber of Commerce. Please

join us on Wednesday, June 29th at 9:00 AM at the Center for the official award

presentation, pictures, and refreshments. I’d love to have a great showing of seniors

for the photo for the newspaper. This is an honor we can all be proud of as it shows

that others recognize all we are accomplishing. Sign up at the front desk.

The Events Division of The Town of Castle Rock has offered the Senior Center the chance to partner with them in providing ushers for their concerts this

summer at the new Philip S. Miller Park Amphitheater.

While we didn’t do this in time for the opening concert in May, you can choose to usher at any or all of the following concerts: June 11 - Fab Four will be singing beloved Beatles songs in this dynamic production; July 30 - The Colorado Symphony will perform “Brass Luminescence, A Celebration of

Light;” August 27 - Marshall Tucker will perform decades of hits; and September 24 - Starship with Mickey Thomas will round out this series with such well known hits as “Sara” and “We built this City.” These are evening

shows, beginning at 7:00 PM. What a great opportunity this is, and because it’s not reserved seating, the job is quite easy, with great perks.

Information Meeting

with Castle Rock Events Manager for those interested:

Wednesday, June 1st at 11:00 AM here at the Center

Bring along your availability for the above mentioned dates

Training for all the concert dates will be held at the amphitheater On Wednesday, June 8th at 1:00 PM

We raise funds at our annual Craft Show, but that’s not all - we also grow our

organization and find future Volunteers of the Month. Our June Volunteer of the

Month, Christie Einspahr, had recently retired and was admiring Thelma Minney’s

crocheting at the Craft Show in 2014. At one time her aunt taught her to crochet, but

she had put it aside while working as an educator and raising children as a single mom.

Realizing that Christie wanted to take up the creative hobby again, Thelma invited her

to the Crochet and Knit group at the Castle Rock Senior Center, and the rest is history.

Christie came to a meeting and they patiently and lovingly taught her their skills. She

said she loved it. Little by little she started helping out the group’s leader, Sharon

Bruen, by organizing yarn and patterns; last year she took on a co-chairperson role with

Sharon. She loves encouraging the ladies and helping them with new ideas to try,

admitting that she is at no where near the level of expertise as many of them. The

group has now expanded to meet twice a week, on Wednesdays and Fridays, and they

are excited about the Baby Shower they are hosting this month for Denver Health

“Newborns in Need.”

Christie considers herself an ambassador for the Crochet and Knit group, as she’s out in the community involved in other crochet

and meet-up groups. Many of the members of those organizations have donated yarn, as well as completed projects, to the

Center for both the Baby Shower and the Craft Show. She enjoyed volunteering at the recent Senior Life Expo and is looking

forward to her group’s involvement in the upcoming events. Christie also volunteers as a proofreader for the newsletter and

enjoys going on trips with the Center, as well as participating in the Creative Writing Group.

When she’s not volunteering here, Christie enjoys writing poetry, traveling, and being outdoors in our beautiful state. She is

quite a musician and still teaches piano lessons, along with being a tutor to students. She plays the piano, guitar and violin.

Christie was born and raised in Hastings, Nebraska, graduating from college with degrees in English and German education. She

moved to Colorado in 1979 and spent 33 years teaching and in school administration in Englewood, Elizabeth, Cherry Creek and

Jefferson County before retiring. She bought a ranch-style home in Castle Rock in 2014.

She has two children: her daughter lives in San Francisco and is a financial planner; her son lives in Centennial and has a career

in marketing and web design with Furniture Row. They have both married and Christie hopes for grandchildren someday. That

hope was our good fortune, because she wanted to learn to crochet before the grandchildren came along! Thank you, Christie,

for all you do for the Castle Rock Senior Activity Center.

Castle Rock Senior Center

I think we all know that to get the most

nutrients we can through our diet or food we

eat, it's important to eat a variety of different

foods. With the start of summer, I am only

going to focus on fruits, as they are starting to

become readily available. With many fresh fruits available in the store, the last thing

you want to happen is have them spoil because you had too many to eat. When

shopping, think about what will have the shortest shelf life - I think that is probably

melons. Once you cut them, you only have a couple days to eat them. Having

trouble taking enough fluids in? Try eating watermelon.

Berries are a great addition for fiber and vitamins to yogurt, cereal, or even on their own. If you have more berries than you can eat,

place them on a cookie sheet in your freezer so they freeze individually, then place in a plastic bag in the freezer to help yourself to a

portion when you want. We usually have apples, as they keep for quite awhile, but bananas often do not.

Frozen, no sugar added, fruit is a great way to satisfy your fruit yearnings if you don't get to the store very often. Just thaw and eat or

throw in the blender with some yogurt and non-fat milk for a smoothie for lunch.

Actually, one of my favorite garden "fruits" is really a vegetable, high in fiber, which grows in my garden and can be frozen. The only

problem is that it's not a item you eat by itself, so it is usually baked with other ingredients so ends up being not as healthy. I often use

sugar substitutes when baking, which helps - and I try not to bake with it often. When I was child, we used to get a glass with sugar, go

pick it, dip and eat. OK - my 16 year old still loves to do that because she has heard this story from my childhood many times. Those of

you from the Midwest probably know what I am talking about - rhubarb.

I admit the reason I probably like rhubarb so much is because of my childhood memories, and we know that food and emotions can have

a strong connection. My parents moved into their home in 1951, and there was (and still is) a huge rhubarb patch that is at least 60 years

old. Last spring I brought some small plants back to Colorado and planted

them next to my Colorado native plants. The Wisconsin plants are used to

a colder climate, so for the last two years they have already been twice as

large in April as my native plants. The plants are, like many of us, hardy

Midwesterners. While I can't count rhubarb towards my fruit intake, it

counts towards my vegetable.

Whatever your fancy, take advantage of the fresh fruits coming into

season, all full of vitamins, nutrients and fiber. Seniors should have 1-1/2

to 2 cups of fruit a day. They do great work in your body to improve your

health in more ways than one!

What a better way to spend a summer afternoon than at Colorado’s premiere racetrack. Post time is 1:00 PM and we

stay for all the races, returning to Castle Rock sometime between 5:00-6:00 PM. Grandstand or air conditioned table seating is available (different fees) and food can be purchased.

This month’s hike on the 5 mile Dawson Butte Trail, a Douglas

County Open Space Trail, travels through mostly forested areas

with some open meadows and views of the Front Range

Mountains. The loop trail follows gently rolling terrain with

only about a 200 foot elevation gain. Elk, bear, mountain lion

and many other species call this land home. Wear comfortable

walking shoes, bring plenty of water, a snack and sunscreen.

June 6, 1944. Fred also has a collection of WWII vehicles,

Seasons come and go; you wish the snow would end and

spring would show up, and suddenly it’s already summer.

With our big snow storms in April, I am wondering what

ever happened to April showers bring May flowers?

Seasons, like life, do what they want to do whenever they

want to do it! Let us all have a wonderful summer season,

living each day to the fullest.

I want to thank all the library volunteers for doing a great job

keeping the library looking nice and keeping it running well.

Before they know it, we will be preparing for our big book

sale at the Craft Show. Please know that we always take

donations of books; we rotate them into our system so there

will be a great variety of books from which to choose...books

for the youngest to the oldest of seniors.

One of our volunteers, Mary Ann Rhoads, passed away this

year. Another long time member, Frankie Valdez, who for

years volunteered on our Activities Committee, also recently

passed away. Both of these ladies leave big shoes to fill in

volunteering and friendship.

THE 35TH ANNIVERSARY SENIOR CENTER POEM - 2006

By Roberta Moore

This all began in Nineteen Seventy One

With older folks wishing to meet. The dream came true with planning and fun

At the Blue Flame Room on Wilcox Street.

Each month more came to pay

Their respects around a table of vittles. Thus, starting the tradition of potluck day,

Rain or shine from the ladies’ kettles.

Many years have passed, many changes, We have moved three times, ‘tis true,

To have more space for our senior parade, Membership now over four hundred and two.

We work, we play, take trips near and far, Go to doctors, dentists or errands in the shuttle car.

Pool games, card games, bowling and such, Theater, stage plays, out to lunch – go Dutch. Walkers, talkers, mall crawlers, some dances,

Bus rides to casinos where we gamble, take chances. Sessions on possessions, seminars and meetings

On the future of our Center at the board member seatings. Noonday nutrition, health clinic, even pedicures,

Exercises, massages, beauty treatment and manicures. There is softball, bingo, in-house movies with popcorn,

Reading or just visiting, new ideas are born. Help with taxes, art classes, craft classes, and more.

Watch over each other whether rich or poor. There is everyday living but needless to say

We still get together on potluck day.

There are many more activities too numerous to mention. So now it’s time to address

The money needed to do these things, pay attention

To the way we finance progress. Help from Douglas County, Castle Rock and personal donations,

Golf tournaments, Eagles, Lions, VFW, and other locations. We’ve had bake sales, fund drives, garage sales with lookers.

Hats off now, we salute our Moo Mag workers. The generosity of the above and many, many more

Make it possible for us to open our door.

Last but never least to oil the wheel, Are the volunteers and Director to keep an even keel. We have drivers, dispatchers, computer help on down

To women washing dishes, men with nails to pound. There is the Executive Board and Committees – no laggers

Again make mention of our dedicated Moo Maggers. We have many, many hands to do this and that.

Even to feeding our mascot Pricilla – the white cat.

We sadly say “good-bye” to a friend now and then. We dry our tears, the sun shines once more, and we start over again.

We work and we play, life suspended

Until that day God says “it’s ended.”

Below is a poem written by Life Member, Roberta Moore, at the time of our 35th Anniversary. She also wrote one at the turn of the

century, which you can read at the Center. We’d love to have poems for our 45th Anniversary Celebration on June 16th. We will display any that we receive at the celebration & leave them up through the month for everyone to read. Turn them in to Deb by June 14th.

April was a bad month for softball with all the snow, but hopefully by June we will be done with snow. Home games are played in the mornings at Metzler Park, which is just south

of Wal-Mart, off Front Street. Stop by and cheer on our guys and gals. The 70+ team, Castle Rocks, plays at home on some Mondays. The Castle Rockies play away games early in the month of June on Wednesdays. The Castle Rockers are at their home field Wednesdays June 1 and 8.

The warmer months mean it’s time to get out and enjoy the weather - join the groups playing tennis. WOMENS: Monday & Thursday at 10:00 AM at Centennial Pk. MENS: Monday and Thursday at 10:00 AM at Butterfield Park COUPLES: Friday at 4:30 PM at Butterfield Park

All those snows meant the golf league start got delayed, but all that moisture sure makes for a gorgeous golf course. The league plays Tuesday mornings at Red Hawk Ridge, with both 9 and 18 hole divisions. If you’d like to sign up

as a sub, call the golf coordinators listed below.

More and more people are playing pickleball and that’s great. We are now at our outdoor courts at Founder’s Park

for the summer. Open round-robin play will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 8:00 AM. The courts are

available for members to play at other times - keys are checked in and out at the front desk at the Senior Center. Only members may check out keys; these courts are made available through an agreement with the Town of Castle

Rock as a member benefit. Maps and pickleball information is available at the front desk. Join the pickleball phenomena

and get yourself moving.
