Dear faithful members, we wish to remind you that your support is critical to Heritage Senior Center’s
continued success. We ask that you consider signing up to eat lunch with us often to help us fund our
senior center. Please remember that our ONLY funding comes from serving lunches. Without enough funds,
our senior center cannot run. It is imperative that all members consider signing up to eat with us as often as you
can, and invite others to do so as well. Support your senior center!
Also, please cancel your lunch with us as soon as you realize you will be unavailable and we request that you
please CALL US if you will be delayed for our noon meal so that we do not give your meal away.
Please also see below for a detailed review of our lunch sign-up policy.

April Correction…
We offer a big apology to Jane Skaggs for missing her April 13th Birthday in April’s
Newsletter. This is a good time to remind all members that if you notice any of your information is not in the
newsletter correctly, to please let us know so that we can correct it in the future.
Cell Phone usage…
Dear members and friends. PLEASE remember to silence all cell phones during
Heritage Senior Center programming (speakers, lunch announcements, exercise classes etc.) We have had
recent speakers trying to give talks, and cell phones were repeatedly ringing. This is very distracting for
everyone, and it is courteous to place all phones on silent during these times.
Is anyone proficient in use of tablets, or smart phones, and would like to lead a class or assist individuals in their
use? Also, is this a service you’d like to receive? Talk to Marci if this is a class/program you would be
interested in. Please see staff if you’d be willing to help others learn to use tablets/smartphones.
