It’s the end of summer…and we plan to make the most of it with theme days and outdoor trips that everyone will enjoy.  We’ll be kicking these off with a summer staple:  ice cream!

     On Monday, August 17, we will enjoy a treat at ColdStone Creamery at the Basketball Hall of Fame.  And the following day will be spent visiting our friends at the West Springfield ADH site for entertainment with Laurie Festa, a lovely and eclectic singer.  Our lunch this month will bring us to Westfield’s Stanley Park, on August 25th.  In addition to enjoying a picnic among the trees, participants will have the opportunity to leisurely explore the Japanese and Flower Gardens.  We will close that week witha round of miniature golf at Fenway Golf.  Our final trip of the month will be to the Titanic Historical Society’s Museum in Indian Orchard.  During this week, we will prepare for our visit by watching the most recent film  about the Titanic’s fateful voyage.

     August at our program means LUAU!  Break out your Hawaiian shirts and grass skirts, because August 19th is Luau Day.  The festivities will include Armchair Travel to Hawaii, theme crafts, Musical Parrot and contests including hula and limbo.
