1 Spring 2013 Lincoln Consolidated Schools LINCOLN GOLDEN AGES SENIOR CENTER Are you 55 years old or older and looking for something NEW? Then the Lincoln Golden Ages Seniors are looking for YOU! We are a group of area seniors who enjoy being social and LOVE to have fun! Our Center offers a variety of educational, social, and physical activities such as yoga, fitness, cards, bingo, community resource speakers, computer classes, quilting and craft classes, monthly trips and intergenerational activities with our Lincoln students. We are also involved in community outreach projects. The Center is open Tuesday through Friday. Membership dues are $15.00 per year. A hot lunch is also provided four days a week for a nominal fee. If you are ready for a change, stop by anytime to receive a copy of our newsletter and take some time to visit with us. If you call two days in advance to schedule lunch, your first lunch is our treat! Make us your “Home Away From Home.” We are located in Brick Elementary, west door entrance. You may also contact us at (734) 484-7000 ext. 7557 or (734) 483-8366. SENDING A BIG THANK-YOU YOUR WAY! The Lincoln Senior Center would like to thank all of you who supported our Fall Rummage, Bake, and Poinsettia Fundraiser last December. It was another SUCCESSFUL event! We not only had a wide variety of “treasures” for sale, but “YUMMY” baked goods and beautiful poinsettias and Christmas cactus. Proceeds from this sale will go towards the purchase of a much needed copy machine for our Center. Mark Your Calendars Now! Our Spring Rummage, Baked Goods, and Flats of Flowers Sale will be held in May just before Mother’s Day. Think of us when you start your “Spring Cleaning.” We will start accepting rummage donations in March. DELIVERING CHRISTMAS CHEER During the month of November & December a “Giving Tree” resided in the Lincoln Senior center filled with a 100+ gift tags. Seniors were asked to turn the tags into purchases of crafts, toys, and books and then to place their wrapped items back under the tree. Two weeks before Winter Break these items were delivered to our Lincoln Elementary students. Also during the month of December, another way the members celebrated the “Holiday Spirit” was by adopting eight area families and providing them with a “Christmas Meal.” Each basket was complete with a turkey and all the fixings, canned goods, and some extra goodies. BUNDLE UP, IT’S COLD OUTSIDE! It’s that time of the year again for the Lincoln Senior Center annual cold weather Hat & Mitten Drive. Each year in November our members start collecting and making hats & mittens for their annual cold weather drive for our school district’s elementary students. The goal of this program is to make sure that no child will go cold this winter. To date, over 200 hats & mittens have been donated to this program. Deliveries have already been taken to Brick and Model Elementary Schools, with efforts continuing into February for Childs and Bishop Elementary Schools. www.lincolnK12.org
