BCSSI hosting activities for older Americans

0

Boone County Senior Services Inc. will be hosting activities every Friday afternoon in May from 1 to 3 p.m. to celebrate 2012 Older Americans Month.

May is Older Americans Month, a perfect opportunity to show our appreciation for the older adults in our community. Since 1963, communities across the nation have joined in the annual commemoration of Older Americans Month – a proud tradition that shows our nation’s commitment to celebrating the contributions and achievements of older Americans.

The theme chosen this year is “Never Too Old to Play.” BCSSI will be celebrating with a variety of games received through Spiel Foundation selected just for seniors. Bud Hunter will provide entertainment, and prizes and refreshments have been contributed by area senior agencies.

The event seriesstarted with “Off to the Races,” when BCSSI hosted their version of the “greatest spectacle in horseracing” last Friday. This Friday, it’s time to play Bingo. May 18 will include a variety of board games and the Nintendo Wii, followed by card games on May 25.

No registration is required.
