Celebrate Outstanding Senior Volunteers at the 10th Annual Gala
You are invited to join the Shepherd’s Center of Orange Park
(“SCOOP”) as we celebrate our seniors for their outstanding volunteer
service at our Gala on Wednesday, May 3, 2017 at Club Continental
on the beautiful St. Johns River. Ken Amaro will be Master of
Ceremonies. The Gala will include a breakfast buffet, live and silent
auction and awards ceremonies. Senator Aaron Bean will be our
auctioneer for the third year. Those to be honored will be the
Shepherd’s Center Volunteer of the Year, together with the Clay
County’s Senior Volunteer Man of the Year, Senior Volunteer Woman
of the Year and the Lifetime Achievement Award. All seniors, as well
as the general public, are invited to this very festive occasion.
Benton House is our Title Sponsor and Elder Source is hosting
the event, with proceeds to benefit Shepherd’s Center of Orange Park.
SCOOP provides award winning senior educational programming
focused on health and wellness. SCOOP keeps senior adults involved
and vital to our community.
We are still joyfully serving our community after 24 years
because of our wonderful donors and volunteers. Your donation helps
SCOOP to reach more seniors, allowing our registration fees to remain
affordable. Your giving also brings learning, laughter and fun to
almost 500 senior adults’ lives annually. See Page 2 to purchase a
ticket for this very inspirational Event.

Thank You to Orange Park United Methodist Church
Shepherd’s Center of Orange Park (“SCOOP”) would like to thank Orange Park United Methodist Church for their many
years of partnership with our organization. SCOOP exists and continues to grow because of their generosity. Orange Park
United Methodist Church provides the Family Life Center, saving SCOOP tens of thousands of dollars. We very much
appreciate their commitment to our program, senior adults and this community!
A very special thank you to ALLEGRO, ARBOR TERRACE, BROOKDALE, COMMUNITY HOSPICE OF NORTHEAST FLORIDA, ORANGE PARK MEDICAL
CENTER and THE WINDSOR for being major sponsors!

UPDATES TO OUR CLASS SCHEDULE: Portraiture 2: Jan Koss will be returning to our Adventures in Learning Program to teach part 2 of
Drawing Portraits; Painting the Portrait in Watercolor. This class will be for people who took her
course during the Winter session or people that have at least an intermediate knowledge of drawing
portraits. During this class Jan will introduce water colors to the portrait process. Students are
responsible for purchasing their own supplies. There is a 20 person class limit. You may call the
office to have your name added to the registration or send in your registration.
Jewelry Making Workshop: Gary Davis has offered to teach Wire Jewelry making during the
jewelry making workshop. This is a different kind of jewelry making that has been offered in the
past. There will be a $15 fee for materials for each class ($15 x 8 weeks=$120 for the session). The
materials will include use of a jig for design, wire, beads and Celestial crystals. In addition to the
wire jewelry there will be space for people to work on their own projects (workshop). If you are not
able to finish your project during class, Gary will send you home with the necessary supplies to
complete the project. Gary needs at least 6 people to sign up for the course to teach. Please call the
office to get your name on the list or send in your registration.
Yoga for Seniors and Chair Yoga: The yoga classes will be by video for the Spring Session. Our
wonderful yoga instructor, Ginny Ross, is not available for the whole 8 week session. Ginny will be
dropping in to “guest” instruct during the session. Dates that Ginny will be teaching will be posted
to our Facebook page. Check out the information table during the session, we will be posting dates
there as well.
HENRY FLAGLER & ST. AUGUSTINE’S GILDED AGE HOTELS – taught by Dr. Robert
Gold. This class will be a 6 week course, the last day of class will be May 22nd. Robert will guide
the class on a walking tour of multiple locations in St. Augustine on May 26. Proposed locations are
Flagler College (tour cost $10), Ponce de Leon Hotel, Alcazar Cordova and the Memorial
Presbyterian Church. These locations are within a 4 block radius. Lunch will follow at the
Columbia house, order off the menu and purchase your own lunch. SCOOP is working on
transportation, plan on a maximum $20 transportation fee (we are currently shopping the
transportation to get the lowest rate). Estimated total cost, $30. You must take the class to
participate in the tour. Class maximum is 28. You may sign up by calling the office or sending in
your registration.
ANNOUNCING THE SHEPHERD’S CENTER’S VOLUNTEER OF THE YEAR
Maureen Preta will be honored at our Golden Years Gala on May 3! Maureen has been selected
for her outstanding service to SCOOP in 2016. Maureen’s many accomplishments include;
serving on the Board of Directors for the past 5 years and currently serves as vice chairman, is the
“Face” of Scoop at many outside events such as the Clay County Senior Advocacy Council and
various Senior Outreach Expos, coordinates registration on the first day of class, makes sure that
the lunch serving table area is clean, prepares the paper products for lunch and organizes the
servers for the lunch. Maureen always brings great ideas to the table and is committed to making
sure that all aspects of the Shepherd’s Center are successful! Thank you Maureen for all you do
for SCOOP and congratulations!
VOLUNTEERS, VOLUNTEERS, VOLUNTEERS!
“Volunteers are not paid – not because they are worthless, but because they are priceless!”
What a great quote that truly exemplifies what a difference the volunteers at The Shepherd’s Center
make! Our volunteers work in the office, serve lunch, teach classes and help with breakdown and set up for the
Adventure’s in Learning Program.
Our office volunteers; Verna Riley, Linda Franks, Joetta Clovis, Chris Bass, Barbara Evans and Joyce
Manson, assist with answering the phone, processing registrations and donations, data entry and work on the
newsletter. SCOOP is in need of a volunteer to help on Thursdays in the office, mornings are preferred and we
will work with your schedule.
Breakdown and setup volunteers: Maria Macleod and Sandy Mills set up tables, move chairs, place
signs and signup sheets in classrooms and make sure all of your Adventure in Learning Classes are ready to go
for you! SCOOP needs help with set up and break down! Do you know of someone that can come in for 1
hour in the morning on Mondays (8am) and 1 hour in the afternoon (2:30pm), that has strong muscles to move
heavy items? SCOOP has been looking for this person for the past 6 months without success. Maybe you
know of someone recently retired or a a home schooled high school student that may want to make a few extra
dollars (yes, you read right, we are willing to pay the right individual to help us out).
Lunch volunteers; Linda Franks, Katie Tibbets, Jane Maierhoffer, Sandra Mills, Pat Fiedler, Lorraine
Cumm, Donna Browne, Barbara Elliot, Bill Snyder, Jenny White, Verna Riley, Suzanne Tower, Jane Bailey,
Joetta Clovis, Susan Stobe and Maureen Preta serve lunch each Monday. Maureen is always looking for people
to assist, she tries to have enough volunteers that you serve only once each session.
Please consider helping in one of the areas above, many hands make for light work! Also, please thank the volunteers that
make your Adventure’s in Learning Programs run effortlessly!
LEGACY GIVING/PLANNED GIVING
“Legacy, what is left behind through the actions of a Lifetime!
You have an opportunity to invest in a place like no other. A place that has been carefully cultivated in order to
continue its commitment to our members—to society—to be a place of learning, understanding, health and
friendship. Please consider including The Shepherd’s Center in your estate planning. Your gift will make a
difference in the lives of seniors for years to come. Contact Christy Fitzgerald at 269-5315 to discuss your
plans.
