A Reminder: Because we want everyone to feel welcomed to our senior

.

sit for the meal. Please leave at least one
seat at a table for a new face or someone who just needs a seat, a friendly face and some good
conversation. Isn’t that what we are all here for? Tables will no longer be reserved by anyone
without permission from Chef Janice in advance of the day.

lunch is on December 18th. A Christmas meal on the December 23rd to celebrate the holiday
