We have partnered with the Danbury Library to start a book club the first Monday of every other month beginning April 1st at 1:00pm. Join us in April as we discuss The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseni. The Kite Runner it tells the unforgettable, heartbreaking story of the unlikely friendship between a wealthy boy and the son of his father’s servant, caught in the tragic sweep of history, The Kite Runner transports readers to Afghanistan at a tense and crucial moment of change and destruction. A powerful story of friendship, it is also about the power of reading, the price of betrayal, and the possibility of redemption; and an exploration of the power of fathers over sons—their love, their sacrifices, their lies. We have reserved copies of this book with The Danbury Library, please ask for it at Library On The Move or you may go to the library and check it out yourself. Ask for The Danbury Senior Center Book Club selection.
Pickleball is here to stay!
Pickleball is a sport that combines elements of tennis, ping pong, and badminton into one game. It can be played singles or doubles on a court that looks like a tennis court but is much smaller. Instead of tennis rackets, you use paddles and a plastic ball. Because of its simple rules and straightforward style of play it has become very popular with people of all ages and athletic abilities. It is also inexpensive to play, great exercise and a fun social activity. If you would like to see what all the excitement is about come to our Intro to pickleball on Wednesday March 27 at 2:30pm.
