KOSTA’S KORNER COMMUNITY NEWS

Hello Wauwatosa Active Older Adults!!! Happy March! I hope this edition of our Wauwatosa Senior Center newsletter finds you all well and that you are get-ting ready to feel the warmth of the upcoming Spring months. I know when

March hits, I think of 2 things, March Madness and Brewer Baseball. I love how we get excited for that first warm Spring day and how it “springs” us to want to get active again. March is full of exciting things at the senior centers. One pro-gram that I would like to highlight is our Mayoral Candidate forum on March 6th at 1PM at the Hart Park Senior Center. This is your opportunity to listen, ask important questions and compare the candidates running for Mayor. It is sure to be an important afternoon. Please register in advance and we hope to see many of you there. Have a wonderful March! Come visit and say hello. My door is always open. See you soon! Kosta Zervas
