The new RFP for Congregate Meals was turned in last Friday. I had several hands that helped get this together, thankful for the guidance. We will find out the results in a few months.

We served 2,814 meals in February. The weather and President’s Day lowered our numbers for the month.

Senior Celebration is coming up May 21st. The centers are getting the seniors that plan to ride with CATS signed up with the proper paperwork. The seniors truly enjoy this special day just for them. If you know of any seniors that are independent, drive themselves, tell them about it, they will really enjoy this day.

I will be visiting the senior centers to speak with them to understand their needs, and see what can be done to help.

If you are 60 years of age or older you may sign up for the senior meals. It’s not just a meal, it’s a chance to meet new friends, find things you have in common, play cards, and have great conversations with people that become family.
