A BIG thank you to Myrna Jenkins for stepping up to oversee the Walking group. Please note that walking times have changed to 8:00-9:00am. Myrna wants to encourage all to come and join the group. They walk to lively music and you can walk at your own pace. In addition, she is looking for someone who would be willing to be a sub on occasion when she cannot be there. For questions contact Myrna at 321/773-8664 or [email protected]

Most of us normally make a new resolution every January, or know people who do. The one resolution we should all be making for ourselves is to be healthy and to stay healthy. The old saying, “If you don’t move it, your gonna lose it” is very true. This community is fortunate to offer many exercise programs for all ages. Why not check them out? For example Satellite
Beach offers: Senior Exercise, Yoga, Pilates, Piloting, Tai Chi, Adult Aerobics, Bone-Walkers
Plus, and the 55+ Club, through the Recreation Dept., offers Walking and Line Dancing. If you live in another area, check out the offerings at that community center. So no more excuses to NOT “move it, so we don’t lose it”!

This group meets the third Wednesday of every month at the Satellite Beach public library. Bring with you your flyers from the Sunday paper or on line coupons and get the ones you need. We also collect expired coupons which are sent to our deployed soldiers. Come join us at 2pm to 3pm.

Don’t miss this fun and unique fundraiser! November 10th from 1:30-3:30pm at the Satellite Beach Civic Center on Cassia Blvd. Join in on some Bingo fun & support
the 55+ Club fundraising efforts. You may win a new designer bag! Cost is $15/members, $20/non members. Tickets are going on sale soon and will be available at the SB Recreation Office, Thursdays Greeting Table, Bingo and
from most of the club’s chairperson. For further information, contact Terry Mellon at (321) 773-7705 or [email protected].

Watch for future fundraisers. In January there will be a spaghetti dinner and more information will be in your Nov/Dec newsletter. All fundraising efforts go toward the purchase of new bingo equipment which is badly needed. If you are so inclined, you are welcome to make a personal monetary donation. Please contact Terry.

As those of us who play Bingo regularly know, we need new Bingo equipment. A week ago the big board was not working at all. Can’t check your numbers without the big board! So, we’re moving ahead with our fundraising efforts. “Bingo for Designer Bags”, will be held on Thursday, November 10th at the Civic Center on Cassia Blvd. We’re also considering an “Italian Dinner” and/or a “Casino Night”, both of which are fun social events. If anyone has ideas for fundraising projects please contact Terry at 321-773-7705 or [email protected]. Also, if you are so inclined, you are welcome to make a personal monetary donation. Please contact Terry.
