Senior Center impressions

I have been wanting to write a letter about our Senior Center aka Council on Aging, for some time, but Marilyn Pelvis’ Jan. 12 letter prompted one. 

I’m always reading in your paper about all the activities at Senior Centers around me (Bernardston, South Deerfield to name a few) and continue to wonder why there doesn’t seem to be much going on at ours. 

The little interaction I had with a staff member several years ago when I volunteered to teach a yoga class was very unwelcoming. That is the whole feeling I get from that beautiful space. 

And then there’s that incident with the dance instructor Kathy Steinem that reflects that attitude perfectly. Maybe it’s time the leadership got replaced!
