Senior event offers a taste of the Irish
04/01/2011
ou didn't have to be Irish to get a taste of Irish cuisine at the Creekview Recreation Center on St. Patrick's Day. Seniors donned green as they ate corned beef and cabbage in celebration of St. Patrick's Day at their monthly 50+ Luncheon.
Following lunch, attendees played bingo and the card game 500. Creekview, as well as many other Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board centers, offers many activities and programs for seniors, including card game clubs and tournaments, antique shopping outings and trips to museums and cribbage nights.
