WHAT’S HAPPENING?
HO HO HO – the holiday season is upon us; it’s Christmas time in the center. Visions of sugar plums dancing everywhere. With the snow we have had and the snow in our forecast, we can all be dreaming of a White Christmas. We wish you a Merry Christmas: Finney County and area seniors. Masks are required to come in to Senior Center, to ride the bus and to enter the Transit Building. All bus rides are free now and through June 30, 2021. This is a great time to try us out. We are still looking to add a couple of CDL drivers to our crew this month. We are also hiring an Assistant Director for Transit.
To the Editor,
Although COVID has changed everything this year, it did not deter the Exchange Club from sponsoring another Senior Center Christmas Party. To be sure, the party was different this year but no less festive and fun.
To keep everyone safe, Lapham Center staff planned a drive-by party with outdoor decorations, live music piped outside, and Santa handing out deluxe goody bags. Later in the day we had a Zoom
Christmas Lights in NYC program with tour guides extraordinaire, Susan and Art Zuckerman, who showed the spectacular photos and told the stories behind them. About 80 older residents came to the drive-by celebration, nearly 100 saw the Zoom program, and 20 more got a goody bag delivered to their house by Santa’s elves.
