Prime Timers

Prime Timers – A group of mature adults who gather quarterly, usually on the 3rd Wednesday, at noon. When together we share food, we socialize, we learn, and we have fun! Occasionally the group will take a day trip. Participants represent several faith communities and while many are retired, some participants are still working. All are welcome and Prime Timers are encouraged to invite friends or family members to our meetings.

PRIME TIMERS UPCOMING EVENTS

Prime Timer News

At the March meeting (doesn’t that seem like a long time ago), Christine Root told us about her recent trip to Africa University. She shared many stories and pictures from the trip. Thank you to Christine and Karla Smith who planned and organized this very interesting meeting!

It’s time now to sign up for the next Prime Timer meeting in June. The meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, June 18th, 12 noon at Calvary. This meeting will have two speakers who will share their guidance and advice on living a healthy and active lifestyle. It’ll be a wonderful way to kick off the summer!

The first speaker is Geri Ann Laiacona RN MS, a retired RN whose career has included critical care, substance abuse education, hospice, and health education. In her retirement, she has given a variety of workshops to help others create goals to live a healthy lifestyle. Her short program will be "The Healthy Plate: One Key to attaining a Healthy Lifestyle."

Our second speaker is Calvary’s own Mary Francese who has over 500 hours in training as a yoga teacher and will do a short presentation on chair yoga. This is a type of yoga that modifies traditional yoga poses so they can be done on a chair. This makes the practice of yoga accessible to all, especially those with mobility issues, people recovering from injuries and senior citizens. Come and find out more about the benefits of chair yoga.

In keeping with the theme, lunch will be a healthy salad bar with fruit for dessert. Beverages will be provided. The cost per person is $8, payable when you arrive. If you prefer, feel free to bring your own lunch. If you are interested in attending, RSVP to Sharon Kunkel or call 518-368-3968 by Wednesday, June 12. If you would like to attend and plan to bring your own lunch, please RSVP so we will know how many tables and chairs to set up.

Reminders:

Make sure you have marked your calendars for the remaining 2025 meetings, September 17, and December 10.
Dues for 2025 will remain $5.00 for the calendar year. Your dues can be mailed to the church or brought to the June meeting.
