Seniors celebrate once a month

Dodie Young plays the piano at the Fallbrook Senior Center for their birthday and anniversary lunch program on the first Wednesday of every month.

The program is held from 11:15 a.m. to noon in the Community Center at 341 Heald Lane.

All seniors having a birthday or anniversary during the month are invited to the lunch.

Freda Shade and Ruth Bevill, longtime volunteers at the Senior Center, are in charge of arrangements of the table, the decorations coinciding with the monthly holidays.

In addition to lunch, a birthday cake is served.

Volunteers from the Senior Center serve the special guests.

Seniors who enjoy the music of the Big Band era are invited to come and participate. Young is always open to playing people’s favorites. She concludes the program with the Happy Birthday song and Happy Anniversary song for the occasion.
