GOLDEN ECHO

From the LCCOA

Executive Director

By Susie Welch

Lots going on at the LCCOA

If you haven’t heard already: Lee County Council on Aging is where all the cool seniors are hanging — and you don’t have to be a Senior to hang out here; anyone 60 or older is welcome to take advantage of our activities! And it’s just about to get better, with Lifescapes providing lunches at LCCOA. That’s right, lunches are coming back to the Center, and to welcome back congregate meals LCCOA will provide a FREE breakfast Friday June 7, at 9:30 a.m., in combination with our Breakfast Club with Brandan. Come learn about the lunches that will be served 5 days a week, from noon to 1 p.m., at the Center, and meet some of our Breakfast Club friends and their fearless leader Brandan. After the free breakfast enjoy a game of The Price is Right, sponsored by Allure,

or exercise with Brandan. We will end June with a FREE lunch prepared by Lifescapes, birthday celebration cake, and karaoke on the last Friday of the month — and the fun will continue into the night, with Open Mic. An RSVP is required for the lunch, so make sure to stop by or give us a call to reserve your meal! And remember: All rides to Lee County Council on Aging are free if you use our senior buses or LOTS buses.

Senior Fair

Lee County Council on Aging will also host a Senior Fair in the Post House on June 11, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Stop by and meet senior providers! This is a great opportunity to find out what’s out there for seniors in our community, plus win valuable door prizes and freebies! You’ll also have a chance to check out the congregate meals at the Senior Center downstairs, see our updates around the building, and run into old friends. Call 815-288-9236 to reserve your lunch.

Come on down and wheel have a good time!

That’s not all we have going on!
