Westchase Seniors Turn Eight
Well, maybe the seniors themselves are not 8-years-old, but the Westchase Seniors Group, which first met in May 2000, sure is! Fifty-five people showed us for the first meeting and the group has been going strong ever since, offering at least one activity each month (except April 2008) for senior Westchase residents and their guests. We had planned a movie night (Second Hand Lions) at the Westchase Swim and Tennis Center on April 12, but were unable to get permission to use the video equipment. Over the years, however, we have had many good times together and will celebrate with a Westchase Seniors Group birthday party on May 17 at 7 p.m. in the Westchase Swim and Tennis Center activity room. Everyone is asked to bring a dish to share (appetizer, salad or main dish); desserts and drinks will be furnished. The cast of Oliver! from Westchase Elementary School will

help us celebrate by entertaining us at the party. Anita Steinfeld and Adele McCollum are coordinating this party.

Lucky Has a New Home

The Westchase Seniors gathered at Bennigan’s Restaurant in March to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day and the luck of the Irish. Everyone had a jolly time and Sharon and Joe Heller (co-hosts of the party with Nancy and Harlan Dulmage) enjoyed presenting the Westchase Seniors Group’s good luck charm, Lucky the Leprechaun, to Lorraine Metz. By tradition, Lucky will live with Lorraine for a year and bring her much good fortune before moving on to another lucky Westchase resident in 2009.

Tuesday Morning Coffee Change

“Change” is the operative word here. Burger King will no longer provide free coffee and snacks to Westchase seniors on Tuesday mornings. Westchase seniors are still encouraged to come to Burger King on Tuesday mornings between 9 and 10 a.m. to visit with your neighbors and friends, but just remember to bring some “change” to pay for your coffee. Needless to say, we are disappointed that our coffee on Tuesday mornings is no longer free, although we do appreciate the fact that Burger King provided Westchase seniors free coffee and pastries for their first seven years at the Sheldon Road location.

Put Life in Your Years

If you are a Westchase resident over 55-years-old and still kicking, join the Westchase Seniors Group and add some life to your years. To receive e-mails about Westchase Seniors Group events, send your name, address and phone number to westchase-seniors@juno.com or call Lewis and Rama Patterson (926-5473). It only costs a smile to join and the dues are just as cheap.
