ST. IGNATIUS — If you could have some type of activity that would help with the Winter Blues, call us with your suggestion and we will see what can be done here at the center. If you would like a craft night or afternoon, maybe a movie night, or coffee hour during the day, call us and help us put this together.
The St. Ignatius Senior Center will hold a Bake/Craft Sale on Dec. 8 at the Center from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. and at the 4-H Bazaar on Dec. 9 at the St. Ignatius High School gym. Come and see what goodies we have. Any donations are welcome.
The center is collecting coats, scarves, mittens/gloves, and socks for elementary and middle school kids. We are accepting new and slightly used items. Drop them off at the center. Help us keep kids warm during the winter.
On Nov. 17, from 10:30 a.m.-2 p.m. Mary B. from Area VI will be at the center to go over Medicare Part D and the changes that have happened. She asks that people call and schedule a time to discuss your options.
