December 2019 Directors Letter

Happy Holidays! We are so glad you are part of our Sno-Valley Senior Center family! Sno-Valley Senior Center is here to inspire and support seniors to lead healthy, enriched lives. As our members, you know all about the amazing programs we have and have tried many of them!

The holidays are coming and most of us don’t need more stuff. So give yourself and your friends the gifts of health and happiness with a gift certificate from the Sno-Valley Senior Center. Or better yet give a gift certificate to one of your friends or neighbors and introduce them to all of our great programs.

We will offer a few different gift certificates:
– EnhanceFitness certificate is $36 for 12 classes! (Classes include aerobics, weights and stretching)
– Footcare certificate is $28 to get your toe nails clipped by a nurse
– Reflexology certificate is $35 to enjoy a foot massage with pressure points to increase your health
– Community Dining certificate is $50 for a punch card
– Membership gift certificate is $60 for an individual and $75 for a household
– Re-In-Carnation gift certificates are $10 and can be purchased in multiples.

The certificates can be purchased at the Senior Center front desk or online at www.snovalleysenior.org. The recipient will need to bring in the certificate to the Senior Center to redeem it. This is an amazing way to support your health as well as support the Senior Center. So tell your family and Santa that it’s what you want for the holiday!

Membership has many benefits. The primary ones are that you get this newsletter delivered directly to your home, a free birthday lunch and you receive discounts on the programs and trips! But another benefit is the privilege to vote for the SVSC board. You will receive a ballot soon in the mail so please vote and return it to the Center. In the future, you will have opportunities to vote on changes to bylaws. So keep your annual membership up to date! Our annual members meeting will be Wednesday, Jan. 22 at 12:30 p.m. with updates for the future and a look back at the past year.

Finally, a huge thank you to the volunteers who made a fantastic pie auction event! Thank you as always to Dawn Board, who has chaired the pies for over 20 years and raised thousands of dollars for the Senior Center! George Magnochi is an auctioneer that makes it very entertaining and fun! His skills help us raise more than ever to keep our program costs low so everyone can participate. We had a new chef this year with Julie Frazier. She created a wonderful gourmet meal for us all with the help of her team Shaune Holliday and Phyllis McAda plus dozens of hard working volunteers. Well done! Our sponsors: Loutsis Team, Pete’s Club, George Warren and Cheryl Taylor underwrote all the costs so 100% of the event went to support Senior Center programs. Thank you all!
