Emmitsburg 50+ Center

BY Caitlyn Kirby

November is here, and it is time to celebrate the season. In addition to the usual Monday Lunch Bunch, we will enjoy a Thanksgiving lunch on Tuesday, November 26. Join us afterward for a faux floral arrangement of poinsettias! Please register for both of these activities by November 19. Also this month, we will have a harvest still life drawing class on November 18, where we will learn drawing techniques to create our own works of art in pencil and colored pencil. Our art classes are a great way to try out a new medium!

Also this month, there are many opportunities to get in your exercise. You can do a center favorite exercise to video, “Easy Does It,” at 9:15 a.m. Or, you can try a more challenging video workout at 10:30 a.m. We also have an open gym three days a week, which is a great time to shoot hoops, walk laps, or play a game of your choice. Chair Yoga with Christina continues on Mondays at 1:00 p.m., as well as Unrulies Pickleball on Wednesdays at 1:00 p.m.

Medicare Part D Open Enrollment is also in full swing this month. If you need help with your Medicare plan and prescription coverage, the Division of Aging has service navigators to help. Just call 301-600-1234 for more information.
