Acton/Georgetown, Friday, June 15, 2007 25 Georgetown's Seniors Centre is a cool place to be! FLORENCE RIEHL Georgetown Seniors Centre I believe summer has really arrived. It has been a beautiful week of sun and warmth but, of course, humidity goes with along with all of that. Keep in mind that your Centre is air-conditioned and is open Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. If the heat becomes a burden, drop in and cool off while you have a chat and something hot/cold to drink. Make plans to come out and celebrate Seniors Month (June) at the chicken barbecue on Saturday, June 23rd. Dinner and entertainment start at 5:30 p.m. Chicken is supplied by Maple Lodge Farms. There is a silent auction, games, and dancing planned for a ticket price of $10. No tickets will be sold at the door and are now available to non-members as well. The mini auction held on Monday, June 11th, offered up a great variety of objects to the successful bidders. Keep in mind everything was wrapped and you bought sight unseen. Looks like it would be fun to have another one in the future. The Annual Variety Night was another successful venture. Those many who attended were able to enjoy an evening of local senior talent. The Drama Club would like to thank you for your continued support. It has been a busy month so far. June 12th to 14th you were able to enjoy the Senior Days offered at the Gellert Centre. For three days a sampling of Active Living Programs now on tap at both the Acton and Georgetown Centres was the theme. We hope you had a chance to try out some of them, and, if you are not already involved, will consider in coming out in the fall to join one of these activities. Consider renting the Centre for your gatherings (showers, birthdays, retirements, etc). Rental charges are on a par with other facilities in town. For further information and bookings, please contact Sherry or Kristen at 905-873-2601, ext. 2271. I will try to get a complete list of programs continuing through the months of July and August for my next column. In the meantime, until we talk again, keep safe, keep well, and keep active.
