Senior Pipeline Tidings...

Open Activities

By: Maurine LeCocq, Senior Center Journalist

Have you ever wondered how many instructors we have at the Sr. Center? I did. So I sat down and counted the number of instructors listed in the Senior Pipeline and was amazed. I counted 28 instructors teaching 53 classes.

Ten instructors who are members of the Senior Center volunteer their services to teach us a variety of classes. Barbara Albright teaches Beginners Line Dance, Intermediate Line Dance and Couple’s Dance. Linda Fitzjarrell teaches Mahjongg. Tommy Prisoc is teaching a class called, “Got A Computer. Now What. . .” Cecil Kearney teaches E-Mail Only, Intermediate Computers, and is there to help in the Computer Lab. Michael Gamble teaches Exploring the Internet. Fannette Welton teaches Power Point and The Joys of Going Digital as well as other classes from time to time. Derinda Peyton is Vice Queen of the Happy Hatters of Hurst and volunteers a lot of her time for this group of ladies. Did you know that we have an active Grief Support Group here at the Sr. Center? Dr. Joanne Pryor-Carter from Lion Hospice volunteers her time and support toward this group. Bob Shultz donates a lot of his time as a volunteer working with the History of Aircraft Group. Bob is also in charge of the Aircraft and Helicopter Science Group that promotes science and math in public schools. Janet Swain leads a Hatha Yoga group.

The staff members provide a variety of classes for us. Diana Conway has been in charge of Crafty Corner, Bead Mania and Glass Fusion. Laura Gore is teaching Get to Know a Computer. Ron Beall has been teaching those interested in learning how to play pool, improve their game, as well as being in charge of the monthly Pool Tournaments. We had our first ladies “Powder Puff

Two programs at the Senior Center are provided by outside services. North Hills Hospital sends a speaker to us each month in support of our Dr.’s Health Talk which has been very enlightening to all who attended. Senior Citizen Services will be having a Chronic Disease Workshop this month.

Kudos to all of the above wonderful people who are donating their time and talents for our benefit. If you have a skill or talent that you think some of us would find interesting, please discuss it with Michelle Varley, Linda Provence or Linda Rea. They are always open for new ideas.

We certainly can’t forget to acknowledge all our other great instructors who are teaching us so many interesting things here at the Senior Center. Gerald Campbell, Jan Cook, Susan Gardens, David Hyland, Margaret Leatherwood, Stephanie Mahelona, Candi Miller, Victoria Pederson, Carla Riffel, Gina Shelton, Debbie Smith, Tressa Tatyrek and Arlene Taylor.

All of these wonderful people are enriching the lives of all of us here at the Senior Center. A HUGE Thank You to Each And Every One of You! ! !
