Dear Member.
Hoping this email finds you well and ready to enjoy a beautiful day.
You may notice that the calendar this month has fewer virtual classes. We have scaled down some of the less popular programs but have kept the ones that we know more people enjoy. Because classes are still virtual we have unlimited spaces so please take a look and let us know what you would like to join.
In the next week or so our focus will shift to getting ready to organize for outside classes and most virtual classes will still be offered.
Email is the best way for us to reach most of you but if you have a friend or neighbor who you think would appreciate getting these updates in the mail let me know and we will make sure we stay connected to them.
Last week our Program Committee met and part of the discussion focused on something we have always done at the SBSC: asking you about your program preferences. Please reach out to JillAnn and share your ideas.
The Health and Wellness Committee also met and are hoping to add additional participants to their group. If this interests you please reach out to me and I will put you in touch with the committee chair.
You might be thinking, what are these committees? They are part of the the Senior Advisory Council, which is a 13-member board (all Senior Center members) appointed by the Mayor and Township Council for a three year term. The Council discusses issues that affect the senior center with the goal of bringing the needs of the greater community to the forefront. The advisory council has various committees (New Member Welcoming, Buildings and Grounds, Finance, etc.) that are all chaired by a senior advisory council member. Senior Center members are welcome to join committees when there are openings. Currently, all meetings are virtual but eventually we will be back to meeting in person.
There is also a group called Friends of the Senior Center that focuses on fundraising and socialization.
Please continue to reach out if you need assistance with accessing a vaccine; we are here to help!
A very happy Easter to all who celebrate! May we all find new meaning and purpose in this season of renewal and rebirth.
My best,
Caryl
