Remembering Bill Slatcher

Our membership growth began in 1972 with 750 members and today we are over 1200 members. Our vision and mission is to provide a place for members to meet and participate in leisure and educational activities that address their health, happiness and independence. We are not a daycare facility. We enhance people’s lives so that they can stay home longer. We lengthen the gap of independence. Our money comes from membership, trips, activities, fundraising and grants.

Former Mayor William "Bill” Slatcher was instrumental in many ways to the Western Sussex County, Sea-ford Delaware community. Bill had a big heart for Seniors. He was able to guide Nanticoke Senior Center on the path where we are currently located today at: 1001 West Locust Street. The overall generosity and guidance from key people within the City of Seaford and Delaware State Officials has placed us on a successful path.

US Census 2020

What is a census and why is it important? Once a decade, the next Census is 2020. America comes together to count every resident in the United States. The Census provides the basis for reap-portioning Congressional seats, redistricting billions of dollars in federal funding to support your state, county, and community’s vital programs.

We are here to say, "You don’t have to grieve alone!” Seasons Hospice & Palliative Care provides this free support group. The group is led by knowledgeable, understanding, professionals who will help support and guide you through the grief process.

Reiki by Rhonda

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduc-tion and relaxation that also promotes healing. Reiki energy allows the muscles to relax and increases blood flow to treated areas, which in turn quickens the healing process. Reiki helps reduce stress, headaches, insomnia, upset stomach, sprains, and many other conditions. Reiki also promotes psychological healing, including release of anger, fear, worry, sadness and other unhealthy feelings, & replaces them with self-worth, confidence and tranquility.

Wine Every Night?

Your brain might stay sharper longer It’s a fact that brain function declines as you age. But one way to keep it in tip-top shape is to drink moderately—for example, by drinking one glass of wine at night. A study by Columbia University analyzed 1,416 people and found that those who enjoyed alcoholic beverages in moderate amounts  experienced slower brain function decline than nondrinkers.

What's Your Story?

Tell us your story. As I have gotten to know many of you over the past year, I know you have stories to tell. We will be featuring member stories in our monthly news letter to highlight the positive impact NSC has had on the lives of so many of our members. Stories can be dropped off to Patti in the front office or emailed to :

Benefits of a Glass of Wine

You might get sick less often. While there is no replacement for a healthy diet loaded with all of the illness-fighting vitamins and nutrients you need, research has found that wine possesses immune system-boosting benefits. "The antioxidants in wine increases heart-healthy HDL cholesterol as well as keeping the immune system strong,” says Kristine Arthur, MD, internist at Orange Coast Memorial Center in Fountain Valley, California. "HDL helps to prevent "bad” plaque build-up in the arteries, which can also help prevent heart attacks and strokes.

HELP WANTED

Old Age is NOT for Sissies

Betty Davis is credited with a quote, "Old age isn’t for sissies.” Isn’t that the truth. As we age we face many changes to our bodies, our mental state of mind and our general happiness in life. We lose longtime friends, beloved spouses, and family members. It is not an easy path. Yet, there are still so many ways to find joy while working within the limitations you have. We offer many fun actives, plus trips to help keep you active. Stop by the Center and see what we have for YOU!!!

Fitness Center Safety

Please do not workout alone in the "Fitness Center” always have someone there for your SAFETY and their SAFETY. SAFETY FIRST.

Thank You Jane Webb

Jane Webb has retired from the Nanticoke Senior Center Board. Active in many other community activates, Jane joined our board in 2003. She delivered meals to our homebound clients for many years, has been supportive of our fundraising events, and often volunteered at the center. She leaves the board with the following words: "It has been an honor and pleasure to be a board member for years with the positive growth and prosperity that has taken place at NSC.” She is looking forward to spending time with family and friends, and plans to do some travel-ing, but adds: "As a member of NSC, I feel it will continue to be a part of my life. It certainly is a life enhancement facility.”
