AARP invites half of Boundary County |
November 6, 2013 |
Nearly half of the population of Boundary County
is 50 years and older. These are senior citizens
who want to be active and informed concerning
things in their community, state and nation. In order to do this, many come together once a month to learn, share ideas, enjoy fun activities and have informational programs. As a group, they take field trips to businesses and agencies, help others, give support to Head Start and keep informed of education and health news. A representative from the group is a liaison to the Coalition for Families and Children. All seniors are welcome to participate at the gathering of the AARP chapter, which this year celebrates its fortieth anniversary as a chapter in Bonners Ferry, on the second Monday of each month at 1 p.m. in the VFW hall at the Senior Hospitality Center. Further information can be obtained at (208) 267-3437 or (208) 267-2485. |
