Monthly discussions at three senior centers

Groups will meet monthly to discuss topical issues at Seattle’s Greenwood, Ballard and Wallingford Senior Centers, on the initiative of the Puget Sound Alliance for Retired Americans.

The first such gathering, at 10:30 a.m. Thursday, November 4, at the Wallingford Senior Center, 4649 Sunnyside Ave. N., will discuss the significance of the 2010 election results. Discussions at the Ballard Senior Center are scheduled at 11 a.m. on the third Monday of each month, and those at the Greenwood Senior Center are scheduled at 1 p.m. on the second Thursday of each month.

“We’d like to encourage the participants to study and evaluate local issues – particularly those that impact the lives of seniors,” said Bette Reed, PSARA community vice president and chair of its Outreach Committee. “Residents of each of the three communities are encouraged to drop in and take part in these one-hour discussion groups.”
