March Celebration

Our senior center is very busy with activities and though we consider this a great thing, we understand that parking is often a challenge when we have special events or multiple activities.

We plan to try out the shuttle this month and see if it is helpful in addressing our parking issues. Pick up location is the benches at the bus pick up location in Munson Road Fire Department lot.

Lunch and Learn - A Life Settlement Option
Most seniors have no idea they may be able to sell their life insurance policy. Instead, they forfeit their policy to the insurance company for whatever cash is available. A life settlement allows a senior to sell their life insurance policy on the secondary life settlement market for significantly more than the cash provided by the insurance company.

Directors Corner, Directory, Volunteer Corner SENIOR CENTER INFORMATION
Remarks from Renee
After a cold snowy winter, I am looking forward to a warm and sunny spring. With spring comes spring cleaning. The Mentor Senior Center will be closed Thursday April 30 – Sunday May 3 to partake in spring cleaning. During this time we plan to complete many tasks that cannot happen when we are open such as replacing floors, updating and installing new equipment, cleaning carpets and upholstery, stripping and sealing floors. While you are enjoying a few days away from the center the staff will be working hard to keep our facility looking great. Thanks for your understanding. Please visit us the week of May 4 to see all the exciting updates and sparkling clean facility.

Dave Discusses Planning programs for March and April is getting me excited about the warm months and programs that lie ahead. Our Indians Opening Day event is scheduled for Friday, April 10. Our outdoor recreation groups start up again in April, so if you are looking to hike, bike, or fish, please join in at any time. I am looking for a leader for the Monday evening hikes, if you are interested, please let me know. Do you have knowledge or expertise that you would like to share with other seniors…I am always looking for new programs and ideas. Our first Wellness Challenge kicks off in March. Using the Wellness Kiosk, members can track their minutes of exercise and record them on the IPAD. A leader board will track results. Another challenge is scheduled for April and the top 3 finishers will get awards. Kiosk trainings are scheduled for March 4 and 30 from 11 a.m. – 1 p.m. Think SPRING!

Frequently Asked Questions I just signed up for Line Dance class and one session has 7 classes while the other has 8. Is this a mistake? Almost all of our ongoing programs such as fitness and art classes are scheduled in 2 month sessions. These sessions average out to be 7.2 classes per session depending on when the month starts and ends and holidays. If a session has less than 7 classes we will skip the break week to make it 7 classes per session. Why do we have break weeks? Break week provides an opportunity for make up classes due to bad weather, or instructor illness. When we cancel a class we will let the participants know the make up date. Any guesses on the most frequently asked question? Hands down, the most frequent question we get is “Are you open?” The answer is almost ALWAYS yes. Other than closing for holidays the center has not closed in the 6 years I have worked here. This is because we are an emergency shelter, a place where you can warm up if your heat is out, charge up your devices if you don’t have power or cool down in the summer if you don’t have air conditioning. We have a generator which allows us to provide these services even if we do not have power. Occasionally the city will designate the center as an after hours emergency shelter when the situation calls for it. What is the best time to use the fitness center? The fitness center is typically busiest in the mornings from about 8:30 til noon. Early afternoons are a bit quieter and late afternoon and evening tend to be the slowest time.
Lost and Found Items will be displayed in the Lobby March 2 - 6. Claim your lost or missing items before we donate or dispose of them. Stop by and check; you just might find that missing glove, piece of jewelry, jacket, gym shoes etc.
