Description: Parlez-vous francais? Would you like to ? We're not talking about speaking with a Charles Boyer 'Come with me to the Casbah' accent. We're talking true French. If so you're in luck, our Conversational French class will enable you to chat like a Parisian. Your instructeur, Cynthia 'CiCi' Tenny will help you to learn to understand, speak, and read French in an enjoyable way usable in 'everyday' situations. The class is a mixture of beginners and intermediate students alike. For those who already have learned a little French, this will be a fun refresher experience.

Featured Activity

Highland Pickers
Time: Wednesdays 11 am to 12 pm
Cost: members
       non-members
Location: Game Room
Description: Are you a picky person? Are you named Peter Piper? If so, the Highland Senior Center has a new group that might be right up your alley. A group of singers, players, and strummers have formed the Highland Pickers Strummers and Singers. The club meets weekly at the Highland Senior Center on Wednesdays from 11 am to noon. They will hold additional jam sessions and club meetings at various locations to learn new songs or make plans for concerts. The objective of the club is to learn basic music theory, and then to apply it on the ukulele and other instruments, and we do mean other instruments. These have included kazoos, washboards, and pots and pans! Members will also develop their musical skills, either to perform solos or in ensembles. So if you've always wanted to learn to make music, pass on some musical knowledge, or just enjoy strumming strings, come on down to the center.
Health fair 2016
By: Mike Sylva
With the last gasp of summer producing temps in the low 90\'s, it was hard to think of the Flu Season. Yet in the words of Benjamin Franklin, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” We had nearly 200 people show up for the cure. Some others even got the cure from other places, but came for all the other information and goodies our other vendors brought with them.

With shots being offered back in September just about anywhere, our crowds aren’t what they used to be, but for those who did not like waiting in line for 45 minutes, it was a smooth flowing line. People got to ask questions at the various booths, get lots of freebies, all at a leisurely pace.

We would like to acknowledge that the success of our health fair would not have been possible without all the vendors who came out to provide information and services to all. Additional thanks go out to the Highland Police Department’s Citizen’s Patrol for their excellent traffic control and parking assistance. Mostly we would like to thank our event sponsors, the Physicians of Beaver Medical Group and the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians.
