SEPTEMBER NEWSLETTER

PRESIDENT’S CORNER:

Happy labor day, and Grandparents Day. I do hope everyone is enjoying the refresh of the senior center. Labor Day is usually the signal that summer has ended, Floridians know better for us it's just the middle of the summer. As seniors many of us are grandparents and great grandparents I have two sons and four grandchildren, two girls and two boys. I enjoy every minute that I get to spend with them which of course is never enough.

We are still in the middle of hurricane season so please everyone take the necessary steps to ensure your safety during this time.

In God and country
