The Congregate Meals Program (CMP) Staff is hoping the groundhog is right, and that Spring is right around the corner. The sickness has been high in all counties, even though we’ve been lucky to have mild weather this winter.

Amanda Stoess, Dietetic Consultant for the Department of Aging and Independent Living, conducted the state audit on January 17th. The audits were conducted at the Grayson County site kitchen and the Griffin Manor Senior Center. Everything went smoothly and we are expecting a good report.

Due to the remodeling of the Prichard Center, our annual Senior Celebration will be earlier than usual. The Senior Celebration will be held on Thursday, March 19th, 2020. See the flyer below for more information.

From July 1st, 2019 to January 31st, 2020, the CMP has served 23,659 meals to 551 unduplicated clients. CMP has provided 1,701 Bingocize sessions to 184 unduplicated clients and has provided 2,964 nutrition education sessions to 327 unduplicated clients.
