The Bookworms Book Club is looking for new members to join them on Thursday afternoons. It's a fun social time to discuss and share with others the books you have read or are currently reading. The group meets at 12:15 pm on the first and third Thursday of each month. They bring a "brown bag lunch", make a pot of tea and have a lively discussion. For more information feel free to call Lois Williamson (pictured) @ 526-5238.

Every Monday and Wednesday morning more than 50 line dancers come out to the air conditioned centre and enjoy a couple of hours together dancing. Line dancing burns calories, increases metabolism, stimulates endorphins (the body's feel-good hormone), relieves depression and anxiety, and in addition, is a general all-around stress reducer. When you get your body moving to some stimulating music and learn new steps, it stimulates your brain. Also, you will find that the Senior Center line dancers care more about having 'fun' than how accurate the dance steps are. It's all about having fun!
