LETTERS: China Area Golden Agers

To the editor:

The China Area Golden Agers has no structured organization or agenda. We do what gives us enjoyment and have a good time with neighbors and friends. If we had a product it would be laughter. Laughter is great medicine. During our Wednesday meetings we have lots of fun and our troubles and cares are put aside for a short time.

We like to do activities as a group that we probably would not do as individuals, like trips. We have taken several bus trips over the last three years and are planning our annual trip to Cabbage Island for the traditional “Downeast” Clambake. Twenty Golden Agers have signed up for this year’s trip on August 24. These trips are open to anyone that may be interested in the China area. You do not have to be a member of the Golden Agers to enjoy getting in on our excursions. For the second year we are planning a trip to Boothbay Harbor to the spectacular show of “Gardens Aglow”. We will be starting a sign-up sheet for this event in September. Please try to put this on your calendar and join us on this beautiful adventure. More information will be available in September.

We also plan on going out to eat lunch as often as we can. We go to MAJEK Seafood & Grill, two or three times a year and enjoyed our third BBQ and potluck lunch on July 30, with 34 attendees. Will try to keep the China area folks informed of all our activities so you can plan on joining us.

Stay safe and enjoy.
