Senior Center Activities Update
In the past summers have tended to be a little slower. However, the past several months have
been very busy. I think this is due to the variety of programming that is offered. I am seeing
new faces or people that aren't the "regulars" signing up for trips, classes and programs. As I
like to say "we are more then cards and BINGO" and that certainly is true oflate.
Below are some highlighted programs and trips that were very successful.
· Fitness programs- Being one of my goals for 2009 has seen good success with the
following programs.
o EnhanceFitness@ - Session 2 is even more successful then the first one with
21 participants
o Tai Chi - 3 sessions have been run so far in 2009 with an average of 10
participants.
o Line Dancing - will begin in October.
. Defensive Driving: 1-2 classes occur monthly with an average 15-20 people per
class. Normally, not Senior Center regulars.
· Day trips:
o Human on a Stick Tour (Segway Tour): 22 participants and they can't wait for
next year.
o Boat Cruise on Lake Minnetonka- 42 participants
o Summer Pops Orchestra Concert - 44 participants
. Donuts with the Deputies: 2 sessions were held with 20 + in attendance at the each
seSSIOn.
. Sizzling Summer Specials:
o See You At The Fair! - 35 participants
o Summer Dinner Pot Luck and "Concert In the Park' - 38 participants
o Ladies Tea Luncheon and Style Show from the 1930's - 60 participants
