I’m at the Union City Senior Center. When I was invited to come here to do a Last Word story, I asked “Why?” I was told Union City Senior Center rocks!!!
The senior center rocks? I do not see senior citizens with guitars or hear any loud music. Wait a minute! I get it. I’ll be focusing on another kind of rock. I see a beautiful display of large stones in front of me. These rocks were painted by some of the seniors who are members here. Jeanette Bidwell is the crafts director at the center. It was her idea last year to have the seniors create this outdoor display at an empty space in front of the building.
“I had done it at home at my flower garden and I got so many compliments that I decided instead of doing it at home that we would fill this up and give it some color,” she says…
