    I was at the Arcadia Senior Center the morning of the Wii class, and it was a lot of fun to play, and to cheer for the others. The most enjoyable sport to watch and play was bowling. EVERYONE had a great time with bowling. Many, many thanks to Dan Belling for putting a little more spark back into our lives. It was nice to feel a bit more youthful. Thank you
