Over 200 Seniors Are Coming Together For Fellowship, Flu Shots, And Entertainment
WHAT: This Friday, the Brandywine YMCA is hosting a luncheon for seniors.

- “The Mermaids” – A group of seniors that get together regularly in the early mornings to participate in a water/aqua class at the Y. The call themselves the mermaids.
- Social Group on Wednesday – They come together to play cards and different games (Mahjong, RummiKub, Shanghai and some others)
- Monthly dinner dates – On the 2nd Wednesday of every month, they meet at a restaurant for dinner — many are widows so this gives them an opportunity to eat with someone or their friends from the Y
