On July 25 the Seniors Club hosted David Paine, the owner of the new Quiet Corner Winery. He described for us his journey into winemaking and the process from grapes on the vine to the glass of wine on the table. We were able to sample three of his seven wines and enjoy light refreshments. His shop is open on Sundays, so don’t hesitate to visit, sample, and chat!

Our next adventure is a visit from Mary-Beth Kaeser, the owner of Horizon Wings, a rehabilitation center in Ashford specializing in birds of prey. She will be bringing an eagle and describing her program. Please join us on August 8th at 10:30 AM in the downstairs community room at the Town Hall. There is no charge, but donations will be accepted to help defray the cost of this program and all are welcome. Please email to register so we have an idea how many people are coming.

Our monthly luncheons happily continue, with the next one on August 15th. Kara will prepare lemon chicken, roasted potatoes, vegetable medley, rolls, and a homemade dessert. For those who prefer our vegetarian offering, we’ll have pasta primavera with cole slaw and rolls. We have a good-sized group each month and always welcome newcomers.

Sadly, the Sit and Stretch program is no longer available due to the death of the instructor. Our other weekly activities, game day on Wednesday afternoons from 1- 4 and Mexican Trains on Fridays from 9AM – NOON, both at the Town Hall, continue.
