Osage County Senior Center Director Tammy Fager reports that things are bustling at the center lately. Last week, in addition to regular daily activities, the ladies took a bus trip to Bradley’s Corner in north Topeka for shopping at the mall there, but it was closed, so they went to Walmart and had a good time. Wednesday’s cribbage players also were able to enjoy a movie and popcorn; cribbage players are needed for Monday, Wednesday and Friday games. Last Thursday, several sharpshooters played pool at 1 p.m., even some ladies.
The usual activity schedule at the center is:
- Mondays, sewing at 8 a.m., exercising 11 a.m., cribbage 12:15 p.m., and pitch and snacks at 5:30 p.m.
- Tuesdays, ceramics 9 a.m.; Mexican Train games and snacks at 12:30 p.m.
- Wednesdays, same as Monday with Threads Around the Table.
- Thursdays, art and painting, and pool at 1 p.m.
- Fridays, bingo (gift bag, $5 value); cribbage 12:15 p.m.
The Osage County Resource and Health Fair will be Sept. 14, 2019, at the senior center; more information will be available soon. The fair is open to all ages, and provides access to many services and providers to improve people’s well being.
