Senior News: May 13

May 13, 2010 - If you visit the Senior Center this week, you will see significant changes in the kitchen. Our floor was tested for moisture content this weekend. This will indicate how much coating to use for those who are coming to level and coat the floor. The same crew will “roto-blast” the floor in preparation for the coating which will protect it from problems associated with concrete and moisture. After the coating is dry, the flooring installation crew will come in. They should be finished May 21. May 24, our equipment supplier, Bargreen-Ellingson, is slated to install the equipment, and by our reopening on June 3, we fully expect Precision Plumbing to have us ready to hit the skids running. Yahoo! Thanks, City crew, for the hard work you did moving all those appliances!!!

Senior News: April 29

April 29, 2010 - I ARRIVED AT WORK Monday morning to a disturbing sight. Our Senior Center building was broken into over the weekend. I calmly called 911. Then I called our board president. A call to the City came next, as our building actually belongs to the City. I subsequently waited for the process of investigation so we could clean up and resume operations. A search revealed that only one item was stolen, yet some things were destroyed in the process.
