Who can believe it is already February! Well, I heard that Steve's Sugarhouse in Westhampton will open on Feb 22nd. That, to me is the first sign of Spring. After the sap starts flowing, the maple blossoms get my allergies going and Spring is surely going to make it! Sure as shooting, we will be planting pansies soon and seeing the birds come back.
Here at the Senior Center,our new commercial dishwasher is in and installed. We are now just awaiting the proper liquid soap and rinsing agent. I'm sure everyone will be glad to get back to real dishes!
The cooking class is not starting up at this time. We need a new person to teach it. Anyone interested?
Give us a call!
Also Kip Moeller, RN, will no longer be available for podiatric appointments in Williamsburg. You can make appointments for the Goshen Clinic by calling Liz Loven at 268-7122. Kip does routine footcare for $25 per session.
Westhampton COA is inviting anyone to participate in their trip to the New England Air Museum on February 26th, with lunch following the visit. Admission to the museum is $8, the bus trip is $10 and lunch cost depends on you. Call Connie Dragon at 527-2958 for reservation. Be at the parking lot in the center of town at 9:00 AM.
Stay WARM and COZY!

Happy Holidays
Hello All,
We hope the holidays have been good for you so far . And a happy Christmas to those who celebrate it!
Thank you all who purchased holiday centerpieces from the Friends of the COA. You helped us raise over $400.00 for the COA programming. Your donations are helping us to keep our valuable programs running, like the Companion Program, which is such a great service to elders who can not get out and may need some help or a friendly visit.
Look for our newsletter after January 1. If you are not already receiving it and want to get on the list, call us at 268-8407. Or you can pick one up on the bulletin boards of Meekins Library, Bread Euphoria, and the post offices.

ADULT CREATIVITY CLASSES, MOVIES & GAMES
Hi Everyone,
Well, the election is over and cold weather will be settling in. TV is pretty boring. What to do? Join us for Adult Creativity Classes starting this week, Tuesday 6-8 pm at the Senior Center! Artist and COA Director Marie Westburg will be teaching a new art or craft every week. Come and learn something fun and new, or consider bringing your crafts in to work on. If you are wanting to learn a new craft, call the Senior Center at 268-8407 and pre-register. A $5 material fee may apply. Your suggestions will help us plan future classes. Hope to see you there!
IF you have a talent (an artistic method, a craft project, etc.) you would like to share, please consider teaching a class or workshop with us! The more people who get involved, the more creative we can be!
On Wednesdays, we plan to play a movie after lunch. Please consider bringing in one of your favorites to share, or see what we have to offer. Movies will set up at 12:15 (+-).
Then on Thursdays at 12:15, Fran will be hosting cards, puzzles & games. Want to play cards, start a bingo game, work on puzzles? Join us for lunch (call us 2 days ahead for reservations) and stay for the games. The Card Club will continue at this time, along with other activities. You set the pace! Let us know what you'd like to do.
And remember, you can get these posts as emails if you add your email address to the tab on the right. If you have your own website or blog, you can join as a follower. If not, just submit your email and keep up on the latest Williamsburg Senior Center news.
