News and Opinion

The Senior Center had their Board meeting yesterday. Again, we had a big turnout! Even Roger Campbell through in his hat for support. He gave a wonderful speech promising to help all he can.

Five new Board members were installed and one resigned. We have a total of 7 Board members now. All of the new Board members are enthusiatic. I am one of them.

There will be a Board member's only meeting on the 28th to determine what role we will all play. Then on July 28th there will be a regular meeting for all to attend announcing the results.

Computer classes will begin on July 15th.
The classes will be:
Introduction to PCs on Tuesdays from 10am-11:30am.
Surfing the Internet on Thursdays from 10am-11:30am.
There is a signup sheet at the Senior Center Bulletin board. Gayle Washburn and I will be the instructors.

A goal has been established to have the Senior Center open until 8pm or 9pm. As we add activities this will have to happen. We want the seniors of Fillmore to want to come here! We're looking for this to be a fun place to be.

Scott Lee (City Council) is the liason for the City Council to the Senior Center. He has 12 years experience doing that. He gave a wonderful speach and promised his support.
