Top News
Happy August Everyone
Hopefully, by the time you read this the heat has subsided and things are starting to return to “normal."
Freeing Ourselves From The Shackles
The last few years have been hard on all of us and none more so than with our youth and seniors. Lockdowns, restrictions, isolation have had devastating effects . . .
A Financial Helping Hand
It typically happens slowly: you start to notice your mom isn’t remembering to pay her bills on time, or you see your dad having trouble signing checks due to his arthritis.
Another Welcome Back
Thank you members for returning and continuing to support the SSAC, your enthusiasm and cheerful attitude is (If you will excuse the expression) infectious.
Welcome Eric!
Give a warm SSAC welcome to our new Office Manager / Coordinator, Eric Kristiansen!
SSAC Committees
Do not be afraid to get involved with something you are interested in, helping out and meeting new people can be extremely rewarding.
What’s Happening at the Centre
The summer season is fast approaching. Many activities continue, though you can check the activity schedule month to month for changes.
SSAC Bus Trips are Back!
Take a trip with us this month of June! Sign up at the Front Desk. If you have ideas for future bus trips, let us know!
Inaugural Serge Planidin Dinking Tournament
On Sunday May 15th, the Centre held its inaugural Dinking Tournament to honour Serge Planidin who passed away earlier this year.
SSAC Activities
Join Active Flow with John, Yoga for Arthritis, and Johanna Woods’ fitness class.
Ukulele will restart on August 23.
Half Moon Crazies is back. This quilting hub is about learning, sharing and socializing.
If there is an activity you would like to attend, but is not on our schedule, please reach out and talk to Gill, SSAC President.
PassCards Now Available
CSSAC Activity Cards are now available for $6 & $4 activities. Packs of 10 cards are available at the reception desk for $60 and $40 (cash, debit or credit card). Use one ticket, instead of cash, for your activity. No expiry date, non-refundable. Existing passcards will be honoured.
Note: Tai Chi is a community program, and the PassCard cannot be used. Please bring cash for Tai Chi on Thursday mornings.
Grocery Receipts
A reminder to all our members to continue to drop off grocery receipts. Don’t throw those receipts away! They are as good as cash for SSAC.
We have a drop box at the Centre and a volunteer that tallies and sorts them so we can submit for cash. The Centre is very grateful for the generosity of both Claytons Heritage Market and IGA, as they provide a potion of receipts back as gift cards.
This practice is used by many local organizations and it makes a difference.
Call for Volunteers
We are looking for volunteers! We need a small team to do a monthly deep-clean on the kitchen. We also need help with event set up and tear down. If you wish to apply to volunteer, please email with the subject line: Volunteer Inquiry. You can also click here to use our online form.
Frozen Entrées
One of the most beloved of programs offered at SSAC has had nothing to do with exercise, or learning, or even socialization. It has to do with food!
