The seniors enjoyed the wonderful weather this month by going on some great hikes to Champoeg State Heritage area & Salmon Creek.  Our new Driver, Dani Van Dusen has made a great addition to the staff team at the senior center.  She has had many great compliments in regards to her friendly and helpful demeanor.  The Oregon Historical Society and Northwest Senior Theatre were just a few of the great trips Dani was able to enjoy with the seniors.
