Welcome

 

WELCOME TO THE UPPER MERION SENIOR SERVICE CENTER

There are important celebrations in the month of May. May Day is the first and is an ancient celebration welcoming the spring/summer season. Mother’s Day is on the 10th, and we will celebrate with a Royal-Tea on Friday, May 8th. The month ends with Memorial Day, a holiday in the United States dedicated to honoring and mourning the military personnel who died while serving in the U.S. Armed Forces. Let’s all reflect on each
celebration and how they may affect us.
 
The next Garden Group meets on May 7th to plant and prepare our garden for its beauty in spring and summer. The patio umbrellas will be out soon. Spring is perfect time to enjoy a packed lunch or a cup of coffee and get some fresh air. If anyone wants to help, let the office staff know. Always room for more helpers.
 
I would like to highlight the Art Group who meet on Mondays 12 to 3pm in the Art Room at the Community Center. They meet but work on whatever artistic activity such as painting, jewelry making, crochet, needlepoint or any other. It is a social gathering as well.
 
Many are taking advantage of our Tuesday evening hours open for Bocce, Cornhole, and the Game Room is open if you would like to organize a card game. The hours are 4:30 to 7pm. You may come at any time during the hours. Enter from the patio door if the front doors happen to be locked.
 
The members of the Board of Directors and I are always looking for ideas of how to improve the activities for our members. If you would like to share your thoughts, please drop your suggestions in the box in the kitchen area. Please provide your name so we can follow up.
 
Happy May everyone. As always, I hope to see you around the Center enjoying each other and the variety of activities available.
 

Sharon Brzoska, President
