Hello Young at Heart Friends and Family;
The first flakes of snow dot our yards, as we transition from Thanksgiving to that period of waiting for Christmas and then Spring. The snow and cold has a way of slowing us down. Many yards have been brightly decorated, celebrating the many facets of the upcoming holidays. That reminds us of the joy of the season.
Next Monday, December 4 at 12:45-2:00, YAH will be offering Advent Reflections. This will be an opportunity to reflect on the four weeks of Advent through poetry, song, story, music, and activities. Hopefully, we can all find some time to slow down, breathe, and seek some quiet time to reflect. Please join us as we share in this wonderful time of year. RSVP is helpful.
There will be no pickleball next week Tuesday or Wednesday as the gym will be closed due to the Annual Christmas Store.
Craft Sale: Attached are some pictures of the various items the YAH Crafters have been busy making. They will be displaying for sale a selection of their items at the Christmas Party on Monday, December 18, 10:00-2:00.Among the selection you will find high quality baby blankets, bibs, burp cloths, stuffed balls and teddy bears; cloth bags of various sizes; hats, mittens and scarves; cozies, quilts and table-runners, along with countless other homemade items that are very practical and make great gift items.
