Senior Center Program Update
Spring has finally come and the participation levels at the Senior Center have started to rise.
On Saturday, April 13th, the Chanhassen Senior Center held their monthly Saturday night meal.
This month's dinner was catered by Frankie's Pizza & Pasta. The meal consisted of all you can
eat pizza, lettuce salad and Italian ice cream for dessert. Dinner music was provided by Lisa
Gerszewski, a local piano player. The attendance for the meal was 30 people with approximately
10 people being new to the program. The party was a great success and was enjoyed by all! It was
suggested by many people to repeat this meal again in the future.
Other activities and trips that are planned for the next month include the new biking & walking
program, Mille Lacs Grand Casino Trip, Kuemple Clock & Chimes Works Tour (rescheduled
from 3/25/96), Senior Expo, and a Minnesota Zoo Trip. Registrations are coming in at a steady
pace and look to be promising,
At this time I am busy working on new programs for the next senior newsletter, Senior Expo
programming, and communications with the Chanhassen Lion's Club for possible donations to
the Senior Center. In the meantime, I look forward to the results of these tasks and how they will
support the future of the Chanhassen Senior Center.
