We are excited to be offering our Monday Munches at the Charlotte Senior Center again.
Our OPEN flag is out. Do stop by to say hello, 9-4, M-F—we’re right across from the post office.
After many months, we are finally open again! The OPEN flag is out. If you’d like to stop by to participate or to visit between 9 and 4 during the week, please check out our guidance about wearing a mask here.
As we begin to open our doors and start offering in-person classes again, we are pleased to announce that Lori York has joined the Senior Center in a part-time position as Assistant to the Director. Lori has a wealth of experience and is looking forward to meeting participants and welcoming volunteers back to the Center.
The Senior Center has begun a ‘soft opening.’ Priority is being given to those groups that have not been able to gather on Zoom: Bridge, Mahjong, Strength Maintenance, Tai Chi -Advanced. By the end of this month, Essentrics and Pilates classes will be back in person.

Well, wasn’t that a surprise! The CDC’s announcement about masks last Friday managed to make the CSC’s Summer Schedule out of date—just as it was being printed.
Another season is almost upon us: CSC’s Summer Schedule will be inserted in the next issue of The Charlotte News.
Life is often not as simple as we would like. Despite the announcements that senior centers in Vermont may open again, there are still many guidelines and restrictions that centers throughout the state are grappling with.
When it comes to re-opening the CSC, it looks like a little patience is still in order.
Daylight Saving Time is back, and spring is here, officially. The last patches of snow are disappearing, and the daffodils, crocuses, tulips and flowering trees are on their way. We stretch and blink in the sunlight, like Rip Van Winkles we are, waking after a long sleep.
It’s probably safe to say that there will be a morning—and it is just over that hill. Coming soon. Here’s what’s happening at the Senior Center.
The Spring Schedule 2021 covering March through May is an early insert in this edition. There is a lot to see – and you’ll probably want to have your calendar handy.
Winter season is winding down at CSC—which is not to say that there is not a lot happening—just that other than the Wednesday talks at 1 p.m., there are no new courses that start in February.
Have you been sitting at home much? There’s no time like the present to sign up for an online exercise course or two. You are always welcome to try out one class—if you decide you do not want to continue with it, the fee is waived.
For more expanded descriptions, as well as additional courses and talks, please visit CharlotteSeniorCenterVT.org.
Have patience—but stay as mentally and physically active as you can: Participate in a course, attend a Wednesday talk, take a walk. Here are just some of the offerings for you to consider—in addition to the many other ongoing courses.
Have you noticed that this issue of The Charlotte News has the new CSC Winter Schedule? Once you have a chance to take a look, it may be a little misleading as to what is actually taking place in the Center building these days.
Treating everyone with kindness is a form of thanksgiving. And it can be great fun to perform random acts of kindness—anonymously. Give it a try!
Have you been looking in vain for the Winter Schedule insert that was supposed to be in this issue?
