This exclusive adventure is open only to travelers connected with the Center, making it a unique opportunity to explore one of the world’s most stunning destinations in the company of familiar faces and new friends. This is more than a vacation; it’s a chance to experience some of the most awe-inspiring landscapes on Earth, to soak in the serenity of geothermal waters, and to search the night sky for the shimmering wonder of the northern lights.
by Russ Alman  Ricks brought two large tubs of apricots to the Senior Center. Each time, the produce was gone within a day. It’s not the first time Don Ricks has showed up with boxes of fruit.
Last year, Ricks brought apples and pears. Those were quickly snatched up and taken home by the members at the Wenatchee Valley Senior Activity Center.  A crew from the Wenatchee Valley Fire Department toured the Wenatchee Valley Senior Activity Center on July 11 to become more familiar with the layout of the building in case of an emergency. The fire department inspects all commercial and multi-dwelling structures periodically so they can memorize the key areas of concern, including electrical panels, potential fire ignition locations and paths to emergency exits. Familiarity with buildings can save valuable seconds during a fire or other evacuation event.
by Russ Alman, WVSAC Communications Director  Screenshots from Innocaption for iPhone. InnoCaption by default will use AI-based captioning, but has the option for a live human assistant if needed. Both options are free to use. Both Apple and Google have a variety of built-in tools in their smartphone and tablet operating systems to help people who have aural, visual or physical disabilities. I could easily cover one of these tools every month and fill this column for a couple of years
