We had a great response to our first two activities since we resumed bimonthly events. A group of 24 went to Kimmswick, and 19 to Zia’s with a quick stop at the Art Museum. I had several of you complain about still being hungry when we left…just kidding!

Our next trip to the zoo on May 12 will be slightly more physically demanding, although we will make it as short of a distance as possible. The bus will drop you off in front of the north entrance; the dinosaur exhibit is where the Children’s Zoo was previously located. That is neither a difficult nor long walk. For those who want to visit the reptile and insect exhibit, it is nearby, as are the polar bear, grizzlies, puffins and penguins. The zoo does require you to wear a mask at all times. The cost of this exhibit is $5.95. The exhibit has 16 different groupings of animatronic and stationary dinosaurs. After the zoo, we will head down to the Spaghetti Factory on the Landing for lunch.

Please sign up for all Prime Time events at the Connection Center located through the doorway between the Media Center and Coffee Café.

A sign up sheet for the banquet for Legacy weekend is available in the Connection Center. The deadline is May 17, so that the food can be ordered. It’s going to be a fun night with music from the 40s, 50s, and 60s, along with an intro from our speaker on Sunday morning who will challenge us to “Have a Blast While We Last!”
