Coast to Coasters relate their cross-country trek

You watched their progress on their blog. Now hear their story.

The Coast to Coast Bikers will be at the Senior Center at 5:30 p.m. Monday, telling their story about the ups and downs and how they made the month long trip across the United States. They will be bringing lots of photos to share. Don’t miss this fun night as the guys recap their adventure.

It’s the Holiday Season and time for lefsa. Although a Norwegian tradition, everyone loves lefsa. Come and take this hands on class with Ramona Swenson at 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday, and learn to make your own lefsa.

The class is free but if you would like to take the lefsa home with you she is selling it for $5 per half. Lefsa makes a great gift or a fun treat for your holiday party.

To sign up for this class please stop by or call the front desk at the Senior Center at 433-2370 ext. 0.

Check out our calendar for all the great activities going on at the center.

You are always welcome at the Senior Center. See you soon!
