Book Club Special Guest
The Senior Center Book Club will be reading "True Gold" during the month of October in order to prepare for a special presentation by the author, Greg Velm, at the meeting from 11:30 a.m. -12:30 p.m. on Nov. 12th. "True Gold" is an adventurous account of the settlers in Sacramento and their rush for riches. Books may be purchased through the Senior Center.

Caring Neighbors Host Fling
Volunteers sporting their new "Caring Neighbors" t-shirts will be hosting the First Friday Fling on Oct. 5th from 6-9 p.m. If you know a senior in your block that hasn't attended a First Friday yet, why not bring them along to meet some of the neighborhood volunteers? Folks will be able to sign up for the caring neighbors program as volunteers or seniors wanting some assistance.

Bereavement and Loss Group
The Senior Center will host a six week Bereavement and Loss group on Tuesdays starting Oct. 16th from 2:30-3:30 p.m. The group will be conducted by Susan Willis, MA from the Vitas organization. Susan recommends that six months have passed since the experience of loss by participants.

For more information about these activities, or to register for the Bereavement and Loss group, please call Janice at 455-6339.
