720 South 4th Street • Reservations: 406-628-7571

Monday thru Friday at 12:00

Ooh, I’m driving my life away, Looking for a better way for me. As I writing down this verse, I was singing along to the tune of the old Eddie Rabbit song. As I get older, I am always looking for a better way for me. I can hardly believe that summer is almost over. We still have some warm days ahead of us though.

We have lunch in Laurel at noon Monday through Friday. Please remember to call (406)628-7571 the day before by noon for a lunch reservation.

The seniors here in Laurel still play pinochle 2 times a week and bingo on Friday. All games start at 1:00. There’s also plenty of conversations and catching up on the happenings in our area. Hope to see you soon!

In the spirit of the good old summertime, our inspiration for this month’s letter is from the song “Driving my Life Away” by Eddy Rabbit. Some of you might plan on attending the September 2, Labor Day Burn the Point in downtown Billings. We hope it is a sunny day. Summer is winding down and we are ready to finish up the harvest and clean the gardens to prepare for some beautiful fall weather and harvest moons. September 23 is the first day of Fall.

Join our Shepherd Seniors for lunch on Wednesday of every week. Guests and those new to our community are always welcome. Call Dawn Beddes at 406-696-1343 before noon on Monday for reservations and or cancellations. BINGO follows every week after lunch with the best caller around.

Thursday is men's coffee at 9am, Friday is Women's Game day, Tuesday and Friday is exercise, starting date to be announced. Book mobile is the 2nd and 4th Wed. of the month. Come join our group for some time away from the same old grind. Halloween will certainly bring out the strange and funny costumes from lots of our Seniors.

ALWAYS STAY HUMBLE and KIND!!!

When you’re “lookin’ for a better life”, try the South Park Seniors meal site.

You are sure to meet someone you can relate to. No more “drivin’ your life away”. And if you’re “lookin’ for a sunny day”, you can find it at South Park Senior Center, even when the clouds are blocking the sun outside. Their new bright lights will help your mood! We look forward to seeing you soon.

VFW Hall • Main Street • Reservations: 406-880-6061

• Fridays at 12:00

Happy fall! We at Worden Seniors hope you have had a relaxing summer, and are enjoying the cooler days with no mosquitoes.

It is always fun to look at those classic cars that we rode around in years ago. Those were fun days, but our later years can be just as enjoyable. We so enjoy our weekly gatherings, and invite anyone who is in the area to join us for good food, friendly conversation, and fun activities.

West End Meal Site

King of Glory Church • 4125 Grand Avenue

Reservations: 406-259-9666

• Tuesday and Thursday at 12:00

As summer closes out, enjoy the harvest. As we’re driving our life away looking for a sunny day, remember to stop and enjoy the fall flowers along the way.

As I write this, the church basement where we usually eat is being finished after the flooding. It should be looking beautiful by September. If not, we will still do our meals upstairs. (Thank goodness for the elevator!) Because of the construction, we put off our one-year anniversary, which was in August, until September 26. It’s hard to believe we’ve been serving meals out here at King of Glory for a year already. Join us in the celebration!
