The next Senior Lunch will be on Tuesday, October 10, 2017 at 1:00 PM at the Corner Bakery Cafe. It is located at 3375 El Camino Real at the corner of Fernando where the Boston Market used to be, with plenty of parking either in front or behind the restaurant.

The Corner Bakery Cafe is cafeteria style so you will each pay for your own selection at the counter, and they will deliver your order to the table when it is ready. The prices are modest, there are no tips involved, and we even get a senior discount. You can look at the menu in advance by going to www.cornerbakerycafe.com.

If you are interested in joining us, please email Julie Spengler at j94306s@gmail or call 493-9151 so we can make a name tag for you.

Changes in plans can be made up until 10 AM the morning of the lunch by calling Rosemary Jacobsen at 493-9152. As usual, if anyone needs a ride, let us know and we will try to arrange one for you.

Looking forward to seeing many of you there.

The next bi-monthly senior lunch will be a picnic in Bol Park at 1:00 pm on Tuesday, August 8th, with Driftwood Deli delivering box lunches consisting of a sandwich, chips, cookies, fruit and a drink, all for the low price of $10. We are able to order ahead of time to pick our choice of the sandwich and drink.

We bring our own chairs and sit on level ground in a shady area and always enjoy the casual atmosphere of the park and sounds of the birds. For anyone who needs help with a chair, or needs a chair, or needs a ride to the park, we are willing to make sure you get taken care of so you will not have to stay away.

If you are interested in joining us, please either call Julie Spengler at 493-9151 or email j94306s@gmail.com by Friday, August 4th, so we can make a name tag for you and place your order.

Hope to see many of you there.
