They do this as part Kitchen staff of their community service, and we were thankful to have them. Thank you also to our OFA outreach worker, Carol Nettleman who is here the first Wednesday of each month and every Friday to hold informal classes on healthy aging,nutrition,home safety, exercise to mention a few. All are welcome to come talk to her and take part in the classes. Noi is here on Mondays doing our aerobic class and Thursday's the chair Zumba class. She is a great asset to our center.
