Many September happenings will take place at Caledon Seniors’ CentreBy Margaret and Bill Cunning As we transit from late summer into September, the changes are barely noticeable at first. We celebrate Labour Day, close up cottages, and begin to notice the big yellow school buses on our local roads. The fall season is on its way, and we here at Caledon Seniors' Centre look forward to returning to our home base as the kitchen renovation should be finished. We hope you all had an enjoyable summer and we appreciate your patience while the work was completed and welcome everyone back to the Centre. To celebrate the fall season Sept. 26, we offer a visit to Rawley Estate, Colour Tour and Big Chute Cruise. The cost is $91 and the coach leaves the Centre at 9:25 a.m. and returns at 7:30 p.m. Lunch is included. As we return to the Centre, we would like to mention a few of our returning programs. The Seniors' Oil Painting program will commence again Sept. 19 at 1 p.m., with attending artist Greg Hindle. The cost will be $59 for the six-week session, which includes all supplies including paint, brushes, canvas boards, instruction and coffee/cookies. This is an ideal way to spend two and one half hours and find your hidden talent. The Caledon Seniors' Oil Painting Group will have a display of their paintings in the fourth-floor Atrium of Town Hall beginning Sept. 3 and running until Sept. 30. We invite you all to come and support our 12 participating artists. Also returning to our program are the beginner and intermediate computer classes. The classes will begin Sept. 13 — beginners at 9 a.m. intermediate at 10:15 a.m. The popular wood-carving group will reconvene Sept. 9 at 1 p.m. Our daily programs for our members, such as exercise classes, carpet bowling, table tennis, bridge, euchre, poker for fun and many other activities, will be offered as usual. The Italian Card Group meets Wednesdays and Fridays. Everyone is welcome to all activities. New Programs Tap dancing — a new program starting Sept. 24 at 10:45 a.m. Tap dancing increases cardiovascular conditioning, strength, flexibility and coordination.

Future events Oct. 26 is a day to mark on your calendar as our very popular craft sale, bake sale and silent auction will take place.
