Highlights from This Month’s Newsletter…
Due to Covid-19, Senior Center is closed, all events canceled.
Camile… Happy Holidays South Salem Senior Center. If we choose to follow the Governors directions, then I would say most of us are staying home. Hopefully, you have someone to spend it with. I know most of us are just plain sick and tired of this pandemic. See Newsletter.
Christmas... American Christmas customs, derived from many cultures, were given a special setting when Clement Clarke Moore wrote his famous poem “An Account of a visit from St. Nicholas” in 1823. Moore’s poem—better known by its first line, “Twas the night before Christ-mas”—portrays St. Nick as a “Jolly old elf,” not the austere churchman of European tradition. See Newsletter.
