PEABODY SENIOR CENTER
Seems like school just started, and here we are on the countdown to Thanksgiving.
We are busy at the center making and selling peppernuts for the holiday season.
The time for baking is drawing to a close with our last day to bake Thursday, Nov. 13, but there is still plenty of time to come down and buy several bags for your own enjoyment or holiday gifts.
We are offering two sizes this year?a large bag for $8 and a small bag for $5.
Although we have ample stock currently, don’t wait until we are sold out.
There will be an evening meal of chili and cinnamon roll cake on Nov. 12, served from 5 to 6:30 p.m. This will be a make up meal for the Friday after Thanksgiving when we are closed. No one needs to come at an exact time, but people will need to have a reservation so the cook will have an ample supply of chili.
Our local board meeting will be on Nov. 17, and everyone is welcome to attend. Input is always appreciated.
The Marion County Senior board meeting will be at Lincolnville Friday, Nov. 21.
Reservations can either be made through the Marion Area Agency office or here in Peabody.
Our other important meeting will be on Nov. 25 when we have our local business meeting and share our plans and ideas with all the participants of the senior center.
Brunch is usually held the day before holidays when we are closed, and we will have one at 9:30 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 26 before Thanksgiving.
We will feature a breakfast casserole with either blueberry casserole or cinnamon cake and fruit.
Please mark your calendar and give us a call to make your reservation early at 98-2226.
Thanks to everyone for the support given to the center throughout the year.
We have many wonderful people who eat with us and volunteer with us and support us financially.
We really appreciate it and can’t say, ?thank you? often enough. Everyone is amazing and we are thankful?but especially at this Thanksgiving season.
Please come by 106 N. Walnut or call us at 620-983-2226. We look forward to seeing you.
For seniors, the cost of a meal is suggested at $3.15 or $5 for those under 65.
