Directors Corner: Its that time of year to make New Years Resolutions and to help we are offering a Something New Challenge. We are encouraging you to try a new class or activity at the center. You can pick up a tracking sheet at the front desk that lists 25 activities that are available during the month of January. If you participate in at least 20 of them then we will put your name in a drawing for a chance to win $50 cash. Turn in your tracking sheets at the end of the month and the drawing for the cash prize will be held on Friday, February 3 at 11:45 AM. We hope you will take advantage of all the great and fun classes that we offer here at the center. Good Luck, Marianne
