Goshen Senior Center October news

Welcome to autumn! After one of the hottest and longest summers we've had in a while, let's all appreciate the beauty of autumn. This is a great time of year to start up a walking routine. Pizza and bingo will be held Monday, Oct. 3, at 12:30 p.m. Call the Senior Center to sign up and bring your $1.50 per slice with soda fee with you on Monday. Please arrive by 12:15. AC Moore craft classes resume this month. On Monday, Oct. 17, Ellen Finelli will be bringing craft supplies to make an autumn-themed yard stake. Call to sign up. The cost is $3. State Assemblywoman Annie Rabbitt requested a day to meet with our area's senior citizens. She would like to be available to hear any concerns you may have and offer any assistance she can.
