Dear Friends, Irvine Senior Services has wonderful programs and events scheduled this spring! Mark your calendars for Better Together May 3, a family-friendly morning filled with fun activities for all ages. Join the Irvine Multicultural Association for Exploring Our World May 7 to learn about the history and traditions of Mongolia (see Page 4). Be sure to sign-up for the Spring Into Health Fitness Challenge beginning April 1, where the more you exercise, the more opportunities you’ll have to win prizes (see Page 15). Learn more about these events and other programs in this issue of the Connection . Our programs would not be possible without the help of our remarkable volunteers. April is National Volunteer Month and a great time to thank the more than 630 individuals who share their time and talents to serve older adults in Irvine. In 2024, our volunteers contrib- uted more than 20,000 hours in various areas including preparing and serving meals in the Rose Garden Café, delivering meals to homebound seniors, and teaching interactive classes both virtually and in-person. Please join us in celebrating National Volunteer Month by expressing your gratitude for the continued service of our dedicated volunteers. For more information on our programs and services, visit one of our three senior centers or irvineseniors.org .
