Presenter-Vicki Graham, ACTS
Join us as we celebrate Cinco de Mayo at the
Senior Center. We will have a Mexican Fiesta
Lunch and prizes will be given out for the
most colorful clothing!
Our theme, “Age Out Loud!” is intended to
give aging a new voice, one that reflects
today’s older adults. They expect to continue
to live their lives to the fullest, and they’re
insisting on changes that make that possible.

Presented by Pivot Physical Therapy
Sign up at the front desk, space is limited!
"Stand up straight!" That's timeless advice we've
probably all heard at one time or another. Good
posture is important to balance, which helps to
prevent falls.
Other benefits of good posture are a healthy
spine, improved circulation and
digestion, and easier and deeper breathing.
Come learn how your posture measures up and
what you can do!

[email protected] Our TDD number is 703-792-6444.
