The foot clinic is on Wednesday (19th) from 10 until noon. You don’t need an appointment, and it is on a “first come, first served” basis. There is not a cost for this, but donations are always appericated.

Our birthday dinner is on Friday, Feb. 28. We will be serving roast beef and the band will be here to play wonderful music for us.

A big thanks to the Saddle Mountain 4-H club. They made Valentine’s Day treats for our home bound seniors. They have done this several times in the past and their thoughtfulness and creativity is always enjoyed and appericated.

Another big thanks to all who donated for the signs. As soon as the weather permits we will have the signs mounted on the building.

I will be retiring at the end of April, and we are looking for someone to fill the position of Nutrition Director and Site Manager. This is part time work, and applicants must have at least basic computer and booking skill. If interested, stop by the Center (528 Main St SW) and pick up an application before the end of the month.

Our menu for the rest of the month is: Wed. ( 19th) is swiss steak, Fri. (21) is meatballs in gravy, Mon. (24th) is cheesy tuna noodle bake, Wed. (26th) is turkey and dressing casserole, and Fri. (28th) is roast beef.

Feel free to join us for any of our meals and activities. You don’t have to be a senior to enjoy the food and friendship here at the Center. We serve meals at noon on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and have an evening meal at 5 p.m. on the second Thursday of the month.
