SEPTEMBER START-UP
Daylight hours are dwindling
but summer’s not over yet.
Let’s get outside and enjoy life
before the season changes to wet.
September’s start-up time again
for classes, courses and events,
or to volunteer in our community,
which is always time well spent.
Sign up for fall classes
to enhance bodies and minds:
hobbies, crafts, games with cards,
and fitness of various kinds.
You can shop in our Unique Boutique
for gently used items in fashion,
or attend the weekend dances
if dancing is your passion.
Socializing is always fun
having tea/coffee with friends,
talking about vacations
or what are the latest trends.
It’s all offered here at KinVillage
which has great camaraderie,
Buenos Dias Café will cater to you
it’s a great place to be.
Welcome back!

entertaining.”
