The Horton Senior Citizens Center has had a busy week, and are celebrating the warmer weather but not all the wind!

The Horton Senior Center members have had a quiet week beginning with coffee group on Tuesday morning. Coffee Group is usually quite lively with lots of stories and laughs and this week was no exception, including the goodies several of us brought in to share.

The Horton Senior Citizens Movie for this month was “The Forge.” It was a sequel to “The War Room” and was very good and inspiring. Thank you to Shirley Foster for providing the movies for Movie Nite.

The Horton Senior Citizens Center welcomed visitors from Vintage Park in Hiawatha on March 10. We met new friends and some old friends that have visited before. We shared refreshments and good stories and celebrated the beginning of better weather. Vintage Park plans to continue to visit through the summer once every month.

The Horton Senior Center is holding out hope that spring is on the way even though the past week has been more winter-like, with snow and ice slowing us down. We will continue to forge ahead with our activities. The board meeting will be on March 11 and we will draw for our secret pall on that day also. Movie Nite will be on the March 13 at 5:30 p.m. and our pot luck dinner will be held on March 18, with coffee at 10 a.m. and the meal at 11:30 a.m.

It has been a long and quiet week for the members of the Horton Senior Center due to the snow and extreme cold. Being cautious and avoiding any possible accidents we have been staying at home! Our monthly carry in dinner is postponed till Feb. 25 and also all of our activities this week have been put on hold till next week when the weather is supposed to be much warmer. The quote from Proverbs 27:9 states that a sweet friendship refreshes the soul. Missing all our friends this week!

The Horton Senior Center celebrated February members’ birthdays during coffee group on Tuesday. Many thanks to Carolyn Huguenin for bringing some cupcakes for the celebration.
