June 2023 Update

What did the Calendar say to the Clock the moment it became June 1st? 

I am dis-Mayed.

Summer is officially here! We hope everyone is staying cool.

We are very grateful and fortunate that we have been able to relocate to a new space to continue our operations. Lamb of God Church has generously welcomed us into their building indefinitely. From now on, all Lake City Seniors activities will take place at Lamb of God Church.

We want to thank everyone again for being so understanding and adaptable during this transition. If anyone has any questions or concerns about the Lake City Seniors program going forward, please reach out to Kate, Akira, or Justin. Any of us would be happy to hear from you.

A reminder that Juneteenth is Monday, June 19th. For those who may not know, Juneteenth celebrates the end of slavery in the United States. It is also known as Emancipation Day, Freedom Day, Jubilee Day, Juneteenth Independence Day, and Black Independence Day. On June 19, 1865, Major General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, TX, and announced the end of the Civil War and the end of slavery.

In observation of the holiday, we will not hold any programming on June 19th. There will also be no meals served, so please plan accordingly.

  • On Wednesday June 14th, we will be hosting a vaccination event. Please join us to receive your updated Bi-valent Covid-19 Booster or your annual flu shot. There is a new Covid-19 Booster available for everyone 55 and up.
  • John will hold two Computer 101 classes this month. On June 9th there will be a Smartphone 101 classwhere you’ll learn mobile phone basics and how to navigate your phone. We will discuss the essentials and resources you can use to learn more about your device. On June 23rd John will teach Smartphone Tips and Tricks. In this class you’lllearn some useful tips for using your smartphone. We will discuss how to keep your phone organized by managing storage, settings, and more.
  • Annie is now offering massage therapy once a month with a recommended donation amount of $15 per massage. This month is already full, but our next day will be Wednesday July 19th and is by appointment only. Contact Justin by calling 206-707-1865 or by emailing justinf@soundgenerations.org to schedule your appointment.

We want to thank everyone once again for your support and flexibility these past few weeks. We look forward to seeing you all this summer.

Cheers!
