Senior Village Celebrates Newspaper Delivery Volunteers | Community

Senior Village volunteers who diligently deliver the Saddlebag Notes newspaper were honored at the MountainView Ballroom on Thursday, May 30. Attendees enjoyed the festive atmosphere, indulged in delicious ice cream sundaes, engaged in a lively question-and-answer session and participated in an exciting raffle drawing. The event enabled leaders to express heartfelt appreciation to those who support Senior Village by delivering the newspapers each month. Senior Village’s Saddlebag Notes Coordinator David Loendorf explained the behind-the-scenes logistics managed each month and Executive Director Linda Hampton shared the latest Senior Village news.

Volunteering for Senior Village is regarded as a badge of honor among the SaddleBrooke community. On the fourth Wednesday of each month, you’ll see volunteers hard at work distributing the latest edition to their neighbors throughout HOA-1 and HOA-2. These women and men take time away from their daily routines and activities in order to help support Senior Village. More than 400 Senior Village volunteers provide a helping hand to members by offering rides, completing home tasks, troubleshooting home technology, organizing birthday socials, calling and visiting members who need social connection, assisting members exploring options for transitioning to a higher level of care, selling and installing lockboxes and more. Volunteers also coordinate monthly Music Matinees, book clubs, men’s social hour and the annual recycling event for all SaddleBrooke residents.

Senior Village is currently looking for volunteers in a number of areas. If you are interested in becoming one of Senior Village’s proud volunteers, visit seniorvillage.org/volunteer.
