If weather permits, we may try some other trails. We will not walk if the trail gets icy or if the weather is bad. If in doubt, check with the Reception Desk (905-726-4767) early Wednesday morning. We meet at 9.30 a.m. at the Seniors\u2019 Centre and car pool to the starting location.<br \/>\nNo pre-registration is required. We are always looking for eager members to walk with us, so, come out and join us.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CHATS\u2019 Virtual \u201cWalk for Wellness\u201d<\/strong><br \/>\nOur Seniors\u2019 Centre had two teams participating in this program through February 7. Each participant was asked to walk at least 50,000 steps during this week. We had two teams: the Aurora Seniors Walkers and Aurora Seniors Board Bunch. All proceeds raised will go to CHATS to support seniors\u2019 programs and services in our communities.<br \/>\nWe thank all our supporters for their donations during this campaign.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Friday night Dances<\/strong><br \/>\nDon\u2019t let winter weather keep you from a fun evening. Come out and enjoy our popular and fun social dance. The next dance will be on February 21. March dances will be on March 7 and 21. Dances start at 8 p.m. through 11 p.m. Singles and non-members are always welcome. Members: $4.50 and non-members $5, including light refreshments.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Computer Club<\/strong><br \/>\nOn Tuesday, February 25, our computer club tackles Smartphones and why you might want to have one. Once you decide you want to try one, which would best suit you? This session will be covered by our very own senior instructors.<br \/>\nDrop-in sessions run Tuesdays from 1.30 p.m. to 3.30 p.m. These sessions are run weekly with the intent that any member who is looking for any kind of technical help can come by and we will try our best to assist. <\/p>\n<p><strong>2014 Community Recognition and Citizen of the Year Awards<\/strong><br \/>\nNominations are now open for the 2014 CRAs and Citizen of the Year awards (they are being combined into one program this year).<br \/>\nFrom now until March 13 we will be promoting nominations through as many channels as possible. For further details please refer to the poster on our bulletin board or our LED display in the seniors centre reception lobby.<br \/>\nFor more information on the Aurora Seniors\u2019 Centre and all it has to offer, drop by 90 John West Way, visit the web site www.auroraseniors.ca, click on February newsletter or email auroraseniors@rogers.com or call 905-726-4767 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday to Friday.<\/p>\n<a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\" data-provider=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newspapers-online.com%2Fauroran%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5619&amp;t=SENIOR%20SCAPE%3A%20Things%20are%20heating%20up&amp;s=100&amp;p[url]=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newspapers-online.com%2Fauroran%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5619&amp;p[images][0]=&amp;p[title]=SENIOR%20SCAPE%3A%20Things%20are%20heating%20up\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newspapers-online.com\/auroran\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/facebook.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-twitter nolightbox\" data-provider=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newspapers-online.com%2Fauroran%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5619&amp;text=Like%3F\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"twitter\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newspapers-online.com\/auroran\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/twitter.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-mail nolightbox\" data-provider=\"mail\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share by email\" href=\"mailto:?subject=SENIOR%20SCAPE%3A%20Things%20are%20heating%20up&amp;body=Like%3F:%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newspapers-online.com%2Fauroran%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5619\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"mail\" title=\"Share by email\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newspapers-online.com\/auroran\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/mail.png\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Charles Sequeira Walking Club Walks will be held on Wednesday mornings and will be about an hour in length.
