Dear Friends,
We have hosted some amazing events this fall at the Newark Senior Center. Although we did not know if we would even be able to return to some of our favorite events, we are so grateful for the support of the community to make them a success.
Our Fall Flea Market returned after an absence since October 2019. Thanks to so many dedicated volunteers who helped do all the heavy lifting – and yes, I do mean that literally. We did not have our usual corporate volunteers or our university students. But we did have our amazing, reliable, dedicated, wonderful senior center member / volunteers. We could not have done it without you!
We are also very grateful to our incredible staff who continue to do their “normal” jobs even during the flea market month. Their efforts are truly amazing. Our local Lion’s Clubs also help to make the event a success by helping with meals and taking away the leftover items. Al O’Neill and his fellow Glasgow Lion’s members are kind enough to take 2 trailers full of items to benefit the people of Appalachia. We also hosted the Housing Expo in November. Our community partners were thrilled to have an opportunity to get out and meet people in person to share their products and services. Our members were also pleased to be able to meet with people in person to ask questions and find out about resources. The lobby was buzzing with activity.
As we close out this year, I continue to see what a wonderful community we serve. Please take a look at the Save the Date piece in the newsletter to stay current on upcoming events. We hope that as time progresses more people will feel comfortable returning to the Center. It is such a privilege to greet returning members and meet new ones. Thank you all for your support and your contributions of time, talent and treasure to our community. Happy Holidays,
If you become ill with COVID within 2 weeks of visiting NSC, please notify us at 737-2336 x115 or cgrygiel@newarkseniorcenter.com. Pre-registration for various activities allows us to conduct contact tracing if necessary.
THE NSC DOES NOT SELL OR GIVE ITS MEMBERSHIP LIST.

NSC Re-Opening Guidelines Guidelines • Please respect social distancing while at the Center, keep 3ft apart as much as possible. • There will be no access to the administrative offices. Staff can meet with members in the lobby while practicing social distancing. • When possible, please leave the doors open to the rooms you are using, this helps with air flow. Procedures • Participation is limited in all activities • Pre-registration will be required to participate in ALL programming at the Center. Due to the high demand for �itness center, pool, and group exercise classes, registration is limited to 2 weeks at a time. Registration is available at the Reception Desk, by calling 302-737-2336 or on our website at www.newarkseniorcenter.com. • There will be disinfecting solution available in each room. The first person to enter the room for any activity must start to sanitize table tops, chairs, light switches, door handles etc. • Staff is trying to streamline the room layouts, if your group needs equipment or layout, please ask the staff and do not move furniture or equipment between rooms.
Personal Responsibility is the Most Important:
• Please stay home if you are exhibiting any symptoms of a respiratory infection, including: fever, chills, cough, shortness of breath, severe sore throat, loss of taste or smell, or muscle aches; or if you have been in close contact with a person with confirmed COVID-19 infection. • Please wash hands regularly and thoroughly.
Thank you to our Sustaining Donors Each month our sustaining donors contribute $1,447 - adding up to $17,364 each year. When asked why she chooses to support the Center each month, Ginny said, “NSC is a great place to do things. It does a lot for the community and we get lots of good from it" Small, regular donations really add up. If you are interested in learning more, please contact Jessica Feinberg, Development Director jfeinberg@newarkseniorcenter.com or 302-737-2336 ext 113

4 PILLARS OF RETIREMENT (from a study done in partnership with Agewave and Edward Jones)
Pillar 1: Health – most adults spend 10 years in poor health - the
most feared condition is Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia
Pillar 2: Family – most adults don’t want to become a burden
on family, most are willing to offer financial assistance even if it negatively affects their future. 25% of older Americans have not discussed end of life preferences with anyone.
Pillar 3: Purpose – greatest source is spending time with loved ones. 89% of Americans feel there should be more ways for retirees to use their talents and knowledge for the benefit of others.
Pillar 4: Finances – the cost of healthcare is the most worrisome aspect of retirement.

Seasonal Affective Disorder As the clocks roll backward and the days slowly become shorter, it is not uncommon to feel a change in your behavior as well. Seasonal Affective Disorder is a mood disorder that occurs at the same time every year, when there is significantly less sunlight. Symptoms include a heightened feeling of anxiety or depression, extreme fatigue, and even weight gain.
To combat this feeling and feel happy year round, try these few tricks!
1. Get Into a Routine - establishing a daily routine is a great way to stay focused, motivated and in control while the sunlight changes. To start a routine, begin small and start going to bed at the same time every night and grow your routine from there! 2. Keep in Touch - make plans to meet up with
friends once every week, call your loved ones regularly, and stay social! Growing a support system around you is a great way to combat feelings of isolation and loneliness and keep you moving and focused.
3. Physical Activity - exercising for at least
20 minutes a day, three times a week has many benefits, one of which is the release of endorphins. Endorphins help reduce pain and boosts the feeling of happiness! If you find yourself eating a lot more during the day, exercise will help you stay in shape and burn off those extra calories that might be consumed throughout the day.
As always if you have any questions or are interested in joining the gym, please feel free to stop by the fitness center!
