On August 7th, the Senior Citizens Foundation supported a bus trip on the Silver Streak to the North Fork Community Theater in Mattituck for about 20 local seniors to attend the musical “Rent.” Here are a couple of photos:
Community Christmas Dinner
The Senior Citizens Foundation of Shelter Island provided a gift of $1,000 toward the cost of the main courses that were prepared by volunteers at St. Mary’s Episcopal Church. Tom Hundgen and JoAnn Kirkland coordinated the event. Despite torrential rain, home cooks and Island businesses delivered side dishes and cookies. A total of 65 meals were delivered to Island seniors by 20 volunteer drivers, some dressed as Santa and others singing Christmas Carols, on Friday, December 25th.
Here are a few photos from the event (courtesy of JoAnn Kirkland):

At Town Hall, SCF President Chris Lewis presented the bus keys to Supervisor Gerry Siller. At the Senior Center, Senior Services Director Laurie Fanelli christened the bus and all guests enjoyed an afternoon treat of strawberry shortcakes and iced tea, while staying socially distanced.
