CLERMONT RAG FRIDAY, 1 OCTOBER 2021
A MONTH-LONG CELEBRATION FOR OUR SPRITELY SENIORS For the first time ever the week-long celebration of the wonderful role seniors play in our community will go for a month during October. From seated yoga, trivia, luncheons and even a movie matinee, there’s something for all ages in Carmila, Clermont, Dysart, Glenden, Middlemount, Moranbah and Nebo this Queensland Seniors Month. Isaac Regional Council Mayor Anne Baker said the month-long celebrations is a chance for all residents to recognise the knowledge, experience and value older Isaac residents bring to the region. “I encourage all Isaac residents, regardless of their age, to take part in this year’s Queensland Seniors Month and enjoy the wonderful program of events and activities that make up this important celebration,” she said. “This year it is all about making social connections. The last couple of years have been a trying time for all, and connections with each are more important than ever.”
Mayor Baker said the large roster of events wouldn’t happen without the help and support of community groups and volunteers across the region. “A big thank you goes out to those organisations and groups that have helped pull together so many of the events and activities. “Your support is appreciated and recognised. I would also like to recognise some of the events have been supported by additional funds from the Council on the Aging (COTA). “Don’t miss out on attending any of the 15 free events this Seniors Month.” MONTH-LONG Free entry to the Clermont Historical Centre and the Historic Nebo Museum All entrants who show a Seniors Card and have proof of Isaac residency will be granted free entry.
