Senior Action Network
The Senior Action Network consists of Thurston, Mason, and Lewis Counties businesses dedicated to enhancing the lives of seniors through business development and services. SAN members meet monthly for educational speakers, networking opportunities and senior community service. SAN sponsors several events including Annual Caregiver's Recognition Dinner, Yard Clean-up, Seniors in the Park and more.
Senior Action Network Yard Work Day
Senior Action Network volunteers were busy on Saturday, April 20th, with yard work and spring cleaning the garage at the home of a senior in Lacey. This energetic and caring crew spruced up flower beds, weeded and pruned and helped organize the garage much to the delight of the client – chores that she could no longer tackle.
This is an annual volunteering opportunity to make a difference for elderly clients who need help with their yards. If you were not able to participate on the day but have time in the future please contact SAN member Barbara Trendall, Volunteer Chore Services Barbarat@ccsww.org and we will match you with a needy senior.
Melanie Reynolds, Jill Rector and Bruce Bamford are lending a hand
