I often write about what’s going on at the Webster Recreation Center, but sometimes the 55+ “senior” center activities get lost in the shuffle. I’d like to correct that oversight today.
The main thing I want to let you know about is the next free community performance by the Senior Singers on Tuesday June 11, beginning at 11:00 a.m.
The Senior Singers is a enthusiastic group of older adults who come together at the Rec Center every Tuesday to sing, socialize and — two or three times a year — share their love for music with the greater Webster community. There’s no charge to attend the concert, and registration is not necessary. So bring a friend, a grandchild, or come solo, and take a moment out of your day and stop by to hear some beautiful music.
While you’re there, consider joining this fun group. It doesn’t cost anything, and no audition is required. The only things you really need are the desire to make music — and a lot of new friends.
The Talks on Tuesdays series continues this month with three great programs.
The first, scheduled for Tuesday June 4, is called Be Scam Aware. The chief of the White Collar Crime Unit at the U.S. Attorney’s office will discuss the latest scams, what to look out for, how to avoid them and what to do if you become a victim. (Register for activity #246940-F)
On Tuesday June 11, join Dan Glunt for a fascinating program about the Civil War Colt 44 his family inherited from his great-great grandfather. I wrote a blog about this interesting story which will tell you more about it. (Register for activity #246940-G)
On Tuesday June 18, join a seminar about Empowering Seniors Against Fraud. The program will discuss ways fraudsters reach out and attempt to defraud and scam the elderly population. (Register for activity #246940-H)
All Talks on Tuesday programs begin at 10:30 a.m. and are free, but registration is required so they make sure to have enough seats.
Also coming up this month, especially for seniors, at the Webster Recreation Center:
- Tuesday June 11, 9 to 10:30 a.m. — Technology Workshop: Have Apps Will Travel. Technology instructor Daniel Jones will teach about travel-related apps for your upcoming trips. Free.
- Tuesday June 11, 12:45 p.m. — Strawberry Shortcakes. Show up anytime between 12:45 and 1:30 p.m. to enjoy a sweet treat. Cost is $3, register by June 7.
- Friday June 14, 11 a.m. to noon — Dogs & Donuts. Meet some amazing RocDog Therapy Dogs and share a breakfast treat. Free.
This is just a sample of all the cool things happening at the Webster Recreation Center for community members 55+. Check out the Senior Center newsletter for more information.
