“NAME THAT SHOW” CONTEST WINNERS:
This was a tough one. There were some great suggestions and I’m thinking of keeping some for different segments of the show once it takes off. It was important to me to take suggestions from seniors only. We actually have a tie! The two winners will have the opportunity to be our first guests! So get ready for your close ups MARGE HUSE and GERI COSGROVE, who actually submitted the same name:“ Senior Moments”

I also have a little prize for each of you that does not involve a camera!
To Tom, who submitted some very creative ideas, PLEASE would you think about working on the show with me in some capacity? I love your creative input and think you would be a great help.

Have you seen the patio?
We’d like to thank the Friends of the DCOA for purchasing the new tables and chairs. Special
thanks go to Rocco Cobuzzi, Frank Cobuzzi (Rocky Woods Landscaping & Property Services), Richard Ogiba and John Warren for taking it upon themselves and spending a weekend clearing all the weeds from the bricks, power washing the bricks and leveling the bricks!! And while they were at it, they added more stone and cleaned the bocce court!

“ Patio Parties”
Join us for weekly “Patio Parties” Thursday evenings from 5-7 PM (weather permitting)
beginning July 9th through August 27th (excluding 7/30/09 Pig Roast). We will be offering
fresh cooked burgers and hot dogs (A Buck a Burger or A Dollar a Dog), as well as lemonade.
Feel free to bring your own cooler of soft drinks (no alcohol allowed) and snacks! This is a
great time to play bocce, listen to music, and meet new friends! No sign up necessary…..just
stop by the Senior Center, 25 Stone Street, between 5 and 7 PM.
