Library Hosts Senior Coffee Hour

HARTWICK—Kinney Memorial Library has announced a new weekly program geared toward seniors, thanks to a grant provided by the Four County Library System. Library staff will host a Senior Coffee Hour on Fridays at 10 a.m., where participants will enjoy coffee, games, laughs and more. Monthly presentations on topics such as local history, electronic device trainings and more are planned, including presentations by local children’s groups.

“We wanted to create a fun space for seniors to connect, relax and enjoy each other’s company,” said Barbara Potter, director at Kinney Memorial Library. “We’ll be offering games for seniors to play, such as Scrabble, Yahtzee, cards and more. Or seniors can feel free to just sip coffee, eat some delicious baked goods, and chat with their friends. We hope this will be a way to give back to all the wonderful seniors in our community.”

There is no cost to attend the library’s Senior Coffee Hour, and all seniors are welcome.

“Senior Coffee Hour is a place for seniors to socialize, learn and have fun,” Potter said. “Come on by and chat with friends, both new and old.”

And a second offer for a cease fire in January this year required Israel’s acceptance of Hamas as the valid political arm in Gaza as a precondition.…
