JUNE BIRTHDAY INVITATION
If your birthday is this month, please join us at the monthly birthday
celebration on June 24 at 11:00 a.m. Lunch is free for members (not
for staff-unless also a paid member) who are celebrating their
birthdays this month.
Please call 651-3400 to make a reservation by Wednesday, June 17
so well have enough meals. You must call because you wont be
automatically included in our lunch count. (City Fare sends
birthday cake only for those who have ordered lunch.)
MORNING COFFEE
Coffee for members is provided by City Fare and we ask that you
limit it to two cups each. Other items such as bread, muffins, coffee
cake, butter, jelly, cream cheese, etc. are not provided by either the
Center or City Fare. Those items are sometimes available from
donations by members. If you enjoy having a morning snack, you
might consider bringing an item to share. Please remember that
Marshas priority each morning is organizing the kitchen for delivery
of home-bound meals and the Centers noon meal; not putting out
snack items.

CAREGIVERS CORNER
Who is a caregiver?
You might not call yourself a caregiver, but if youre looking after
the needs of another individual you are indeed a caregiver. You
may or may not be living with that person; you may be a friend,
neighbor, spouse, sibling, child or parent. We are a resource that
can help you navigate issues that may come up in everyday
living.
We can help you explore options about:
Meal preparation
Medication management
Personal care
How to deal with changing mental abilities
Finding home healthcare resources
Transportation
We can connect via: email, telephone or in person. Please
contact Patricia Anderson-Rice, our Director of Supportive
Services at pla_andersonrice@wilmingtonseniorcenter.org
or call her at 302-651-3420.
