Alamosa Seniors: Join Alamosa seniors on July trips to CRT, casino

ALAMOSA — Join the Alamosa Senior Center on Friday, July 6th at 8:30 a.m. for a fun trip to the Creede Repertory Theatre. We will be attending the production of 9 to 5, a toe-tapping smash musical with music and lyrics by the one and only Dolly Parton. See what happens when three female co-workers are pushed to the limit by their sexist, lying, conniving boss and decide to take matters into their own–very capable–hands. Based on the groundbreaking and popular 1980 film, this hilarious and timely story about friendship and revenge will leave you feeling triumphant and your heart singing. Cost is $45 with lunch on your own. Call now to reserve your seat!

Monday, July 9th, the County Health Nurse will be here at 10:30 a.m.

On Tuesday, July 10th, the center’s bus will travel south to the Santa Claran Casino. It’s Seniors Day there and there’s an opportunity to win $250 every 30 minutes from 9 a.m. – 6 p.m. Earn 30 points on your players club card and enjoy the 99¢ breakfast. Call the center to reserve your seat!
