Seniors Celebrated St. Patrick's Day at The Museum

The Museum honored our seniors March 16th with a free St. Patrick’s Day themed celebration!  Seniors from the Senior Opportunity Center; the Bent County HealthCare System Nursing Home; Prairie View Village; and from all around our Bent County community enjoyed each other’s company!  Gary Pritchard provided the blessing before the meal.  Mauritta Adams cooked a delicious spaghetti lunch with our partners bringing tossed salad, garlic bread, punch, and desserts.  Janice Ramey at the piano and Lynette Wolfe on bass provided beautiful Irish music and a sing-along.  The lunch wrapped up with the costume contest and Don Herman won first prize; Linda Bourne second; and Bonnie Failing third.  Fifty-two seniors attended and 23 lucky ones received door prizes.  All guests were provided with a gift bag courtesy of the Bent County Art Guild.  We thank our partners:  Bent County Art Build; Bent County/Las Animas Public Library; Bent County Senior Opportunity Center; Bent County HealthCare Center; Prairie View Village; and Val-U-Med Pharmacy.  We were, “Oh so lucky to have you!”
