Let’s practice some of that science today, by **counting our blessings**. Please come ready to share some of your life’s greatest blessings. We will also have fresh flowers available for those who would like to make a small bouquet to brighten someone’s day…or perhaps your day needs brightening!   **November 26th ~ Closed** A note from Kathy….It was suggested at our last Fairland Senior’s Advisory Council meeting, that we “adopt” a local family during the holidays. We will adopt our family through the local school system and they will be helped anonymously. We will make a “giving” tree with tags that you can choose from, with a gift listed on each tag. If you would like to participate, please select a tag sometime during the month of November and purchase a gift. Gifts will need to be wrapped and brought back in to our senior center by the first week in December. If you are not a shopper, have trouble getting out or are heading south (you lucky snowbirds) and would still like to help with this project, I would be happy to shop for you. Just get your donations to me and I will purchase the gifts needed. --- #### Views From The Horizon - ![Shelby Senior Services Indiana](https://shelbyseniorservices.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Fairland-1.png?width=1000&height=974&name=Fairland-1.png) **Click to View** - ![Shelby Senior Services Indiana](https://shelbyseniorservices.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Horizon-Center-Fairland.png?width=1000&height=784&name=Horizon-Center-Fairland.png) **Click to View** - ![Open Thursdays from 9:30am until we’re done for the day!
