Today would have been Trebeck's 82nd birthday. Trebek had served as the face of Jeopardy since its debut in daytime syndication in 1984. With more than 8,200 episodes under his belt, he holds the Guinness World Record for Most Game Show Episodes Hosted by the Same Presenter.

Did you know the only time somebody other than Trebek has hosted an episode during his "Jeopardy" tenure was when Trebek and "Wheel of Fortune" host Pat Sajak swapped shows for an April Fool's prank in 1997?

If you're the type of person who likes to play alongside the show's contestants make sure to check out the New York Times clue of the day below!

This week we've got the Mosaic Madness and want to give you some enchanting pieces to observe, we've also got some learning opportunities, a chance for you to share your testimony with Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon, and more! Be sure to get to the bottom for a tasty treat!

We'll see you next week~

Delco seniors were well represented today by COSA and SCS at Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon's Hunger Round Table! Thanks to everyone who shared their testimonies through the Google form. 

Pictured below:

SCS' four Delco Senior Centers make sure all Delco older adults have a place to socialize, learn, exercise, play, and indulge in creative endeavors. A center membership contribution of only $30 makes it possible for every center to provide great activities, fun trips, inspiring and thought-provoking discussions and more.

Want to give another way? Center directors made an Amazon wish list with items that will directly support center operations. Click the button below to view and purchase. You can also give a regular non-membership gift to SCS at any time. Your support is crucial and greatly appreciated!

Each of our centers have "grab and go meals" available. Please note Friendship's meals are available on different days than the rest of our centers. Friendship has indoor dining available as well!

Check out what's on the menu for this month! Stay tuned for the full grab and go menu. Call your center to place a "Grab 'n Go Meal" order at least a day or two ahead of time.
