Pierce senior center celebrates Kentucky Derby Day with themed events

Pierce County Senior Center recently hosted a Kentucky Derby Day, thanks to a collaboration between Center Director Lynn Platt and Stacey Thrift of Hospice Satilla. Seniors gathered for a morning of laughs and friendly competition. The highlight was a horse racing activity that got everyone cheering. At the end of the derby, winners received special gifts from Thrift on behalf of Hospice Satilla. Lunch featured “Derby” cupcakes for dessert. “Events like Derby Day remind us of the joy that comes from laughter, fellowship and the care between organizations like the Senior Center and Hospice Satilla,” says Platt.
