GENERAL INFORMATION
From the Friends
PO Box 313, Longmont, CO 80502 www.friendslongmont.org

This fall marks the start of the Friends of the Senior Center annual donation drive.
Donations provide the resources to support ongoing and needed services for the
Longmont Senior Center (LSC). These include facility and program enhancements,
support services, unfunded requests and numerous other programs. Through the years,
donations have been the key to the expansion and improvement of the Senior Center.
The Friends are the stewards for these donations. This is a board of 12 diverse volunteers who promote the annual
campaign and manage donation funds. They receive support and advice from the staff and Advisory Board
members. The Friends meet on a monthly basis to review the current financial status and any unfunded requests.
This year, the Friends have applied for a number of grants and have received a total of $3,500 thus far which will
enhance the commitments that have already been made. Donations can come from individuals or businesses and
all are welcome whether they are large or small. There are many forms in which a donation can be made including;
cash, stocks, bonds, bequests, estate gifts, gift annuities, and many others. Contact your financial advisor for the
method that is best for you. Donations may also be made in memory or in honor of a friend or loved one. Your
contribution may be tax deductable. Donors are recognized in the GO newsletter and the Donor Book located in
the Senior Center lobby. Your generosity will ensure the continued success of the numerous programs and services
available to older adults via the Longmont Senior Center. Donations may be mailed to the Friends of the Longmont
Senior Center, Inc., P.O. Box 313, Longmont, CO 80502, left at the LSC front desk, or made via PayPal at the

TRIP POLICIES
TRIP & REGISTRATION
INFORMATION
Trips are scheduled on various modes of transit: vans,
school buses and coach buses. The style of bus is
dependent upon cost, size of group, time and distance
traveled, as well as availability of buses. We always
try to be cost efficient and comfort oriented.
Departure times are definite. We do not wait for
participants past the designated departure time either
from the Senior Center or in returning to the Senior
Center.
Return times are approximate. Please do not schedule
appointments close to the return times, we never know
when delays may occur.
Bus seat assignments are made at the time of check-
in. Participants draw a seat number for themselves
and one other person (shared seating). These
assigned seats are used both going to and from the trip
destination.
Cancellations must be received by the dates printed
in The GO if a full credit or refund is to be received.
After that date, a partial credit or refund may be issued
only if the spot is resold. Cancellations must be
processed through the Senior Center. When possible,
the staff will attempt to resell your spot to the first
person on the waiting list, or you may give your ticket
to a person of your choice. Please call 303-651-8442,
if you do so.
TRIP LOTTERY INFORMATION
In fairness for all and to eliminate the need to
arrive early, we will use a lottery format. Numbers
will be distributed to participants at 2:00 p.m.
Corresponding numbers will then be placed in a
tumbler and drawn randomly. When your number is
called, you will have the opportunity to register for
trips. Participants must be present when their number
is called to keep things running smoothly. If you
arrive after 2:00 p.m., your number will be added to
the tumbler after you are seated. You may register for
yourself and one other senior.
TRIP PICK-UP
AND RETURN LOCATION
Longmont Senior Center
910 Longs Peak Ave.
Customers going out on trips, please park your
vehicles at the east end of the parking lot, leaving the
spaces closest to the building for customers coming
and going throughout the day. Thank you.
Seat Belts are Required on All Van Trips!

An Ounce of Prevention…For Slips and Falls

Safety News from the Senior Citizens Advisory Board
If you feel a little wobbly from time to time, you’re not alone. Everyone’s balance tends to erode over
time. But, it’s good to know that falling is not an inevitable result of aging. Four easy solutions to
prevent falls:
•Participate in regular physical activity. It makes you stronger, helps you feel better and
improves your balance.
•Have your health care provider review your medicines – both prescription and
over-the-counter. Some medicines can make you sleepy or dizzy and might cause you to fall.
•Have your vision checked at least once a year. Your vision may have changed since your
last exam or you may have a condition that limits your vision such as glaucoma or cataracts.
•Make your home safer. Remove things you can trip over like papers, books, cords, clothes,
throw rugs, and shoes.

Einstein and Niels Bohr, the two giants of 20th century physics, are celebrated for their mighty
minds, but their lives are far richer. They were both reared with fairy tales so they learned at an
early age to believe impossible things. That faith in wonder carried over to their work in physics
and nurtured a sensibility that found expression in things large and small over the course of their
lives. Since creating the Einstein theatre piece, Len Barron has also given talks and workshops
for students and faculty, at all levels, sharing Einstein’s perspective on education and making a
life.

Atoms are not particles of “matter,” they are “spirit-
matter” and they point to freedom as an essential
quality of the universe. Discover fundamental patterns
in physical reality, and explore how atoms come
together to form complex figures such as snowflakes,
and ultimately ourselves. Wholeness patterns shape
our being and our aspirations, and are part of nature’s
healing process. The fact that we are here at all means
that we must rethink the roots of physical being to
include “inwardness” and, ultimately, spirituality.

Memento
Activity # 7301.400
Date: Tuesday, September 14
In the opening credits, Leonard Shelby kills Teddy for
the rape and murder of his wife based on information
from a woman called Natalie. The movie’s events
unfold in two separate, alternating narratives. The
black and white sections are told in chronological
order, first showing Leonard conversing with an
anonymous phone caller. Leonard’s investigations
are in color that are in reverse chronological order.
As each sequence begins you are unaware of the
preceding events, making you as confused as
Leonard. He is also hindered by short-term amnesia
which prevents him from remembering anything
for more than 5-10 minutes. At the film’s end, the
two narratives converge and we understand the
investigation and Teddy’s death. Take the challenge!

Feldenkrais Method® - Easy Movement

Would you like to regain flexibility, improve your balance, coordination, and reduce tension and pain? In these
Awareness Through Movement® classes, you will be guided through a series of movements designed to allow
your body to move more easily. Regain flexibility and improve balance as you slowly and gently complete
each movement. This class is excellent for those with neurological issues such as MS, Parkinson’s, and those
recovering from stroke. People with such issues, who are not seniors, may also attend this class at the non-
resident rate. This class will be done on a chair or on the floor on thick mats depending on your abilities.

Qi Gong
Qi Gong is the ancient practice of energy cultivation which allows one to access their “healer within.” Qi
is your internal vital life force energy. This ancient, powerful and simple mind/body/spirit practice includes
gentle, rhythmic body movements, self massage, breath work and meditation. The positive effects of Qi Gong
include overall health improvement, an increased sense of well-being and healing from disease/illness. Your
teacher will be Randi Savage RN, MS, Lic. Acupuncturist. She has been teaching Qi Gong for over 8 years.
Randi is trained as a Classical Five Element Acupuncturist and incorporates Chinese medicine theory into her
classes.

out, to love working out, and to get hooked. You can achieve long-term benefits with these routines that feature
interval training sessions of fast and slow rhythms and resistance training combined, which tone and sculpt your
body while burning fat. Add some Latin flavor and international zest into the mix and you’ve got a Zumba®
