By Staff Report | Local Briefs

SARATOGA SPRINGS - The Saratoga Senior Center will be closed for safety reasons during the week of May 13-17 due to major construction in the building and parking lots. All day and evening classes, the lunch program and free bread will be canceled that week and will resume on Monday May 20. We apologize for any inconvenience. A special thanks to the LA Group and Palio+Ignite for helping with parking issues.

“Picture Shows” are offered at the Center every week for only $2 including snacks. The schedule is as follows: May 3 at 1:00- “Up in the Air.” May 10 at 1:00-“Lincoln.” May 21 at 5:30-“Lincoln.” May 24 at 1:00-“Les Misreables.” May 31 at 1:00-“Silver Linings Playbook.” Advance sign up and membership is required. 

Beginning May 7, the Saratoga Senior Center will be open until 8pm on Tuesdays. We are offering a couple of activities beginning in May. Learn to play pool or improve your skills on our refurbished regulation-size pool table with instruction by Rick Zito. We’re also starting a poker group so let us know if you’d like to join. We have the cards and chips, so bring your good luck charms and have fun! Advance sign-up is suggested.

The Center is proud to offer a new excursion from December 5-13, 2013 called “Classic Christmas Markets.” This European adventure explores traditional holiday marketplaces in Germany, France and Austria.
