Walking Group With Lisa
Fridays, 10:30 a.m.
With the warm weather back, it’s time to start getting outside. Lisa, a Senior Center staff member, will lead a local walk on Fridays. It’s a great opportunity for individuals to meet new people, explore new areas and, most importantly, keep one’s body moving. These walks are on mostly flat terrain, but the walking locations will vary. Those interested should reach out in advance to register and confirm the location to ensure they will be comfortable with the terrain.
Book Club
Wednesday, June 4, 10:30 a.m.
One of life’s pleasures is a good book. Another is the time to read it. At this meeting, attendees can relax and bring refreshments, all while enjoying book reviews and socializing. This month, the club will discuss “The Last Devil to Die: A Thursday Murder Club Mystery” by Richard Osman.
Our Time Memory Cafe at the Senior Center
Thursday, June 5, 1 p.m.
This is a welcoming gathering for those experiencing forgetfulness or mild cognitive impairment, or living with dementia, and their care partner, family and friends. The cafe is a place to socialize, share experiences and form friendships. This is a joint venture between Senior Services and the Hopkinton Public Library. For more information, call the Senior Center.
Crafts with Deb
Monday, June 16, 9:30 a.m.
Participants will learn how to make a fun and easy springtime craft. No prior craft experience is needed, although some projects may require basic sewing skills. Advance registration is required, as space is limited.
Sound Bath
Wednesday, June 18, 2:15 p.m.
In this magical and relaxing hour, participants will be led by Crystal Lee to experience the sound waves from crystal bowls. The waves are meant to synchronize brain wave frequencies, fostering deep relaxation and a tranquil mind, which may ease anxiety, manage stress and support a balanced mood. Attendees should bring a yoga mat, pillow and blanket. Individuals may sit in a chair or lie down for this session. Advance registration is requested.
I’d like to register for the Sound Bath June 18th, 2:15 p.m.
