City of Pierre Seasoned Citizen Programs
Classes will begin Monday October 18. Zumba Gold will be at 9:00 AM, Mondays and Wednesdays. Zumba Gold is a modified Zumba class for active older adults that recreates the original moves you love at a lower-intensity. Tai Chi is at 10:00 Mondays and Wednesdays. Tai chi can boost upper- and lower-body flexibility as well as strength. Balance. Tai chi improves balance and, according to some studies, reduces falls. Proprioception - the ability to sense the position of one's body in space - declines with age. On Tuesdays, 10:00 Am at the Senior Center we are offering Chair exercise classes alternating between Yoga and Tai Chi (seated or standing). The classes will go through December 22. Classes are free with a Senior Center membership, cost to non-members is $10.00

Reading Buddies
Reading Buddies, a signature Retired Senior Volunteer Program, began in 1995. Elementary teachers partner with RSVP to offer this volunteer opportunity. Volunteers and students read together weekly for 30 minutes. Students choose their favorite books to share with their reading buddy. If you are interested in reading with students weekly for 30 minutes, please email or call to indicate which school. We do know that COVID has many unknowns and may affect our Reading Buddies program. Please plan to wear a mask and use hand sanitizer. Invite your friends to participate so we may pair students one on one with volunteers.
· We understand there may be times when you cannot participate. Just email if you have a conflict.
· RSVP provides a book for all volunteers to give to their buddy twice a year.
· We want all children to be treated equally so ask our volunteers to respect this by not bringing gifts or treats for your buddy. If you'd like to bring a treat for the class, check with the teacher.
· Confidentiality is a core value of Reading Buddies. If the child mentions an issue that concerns you, please share it with the teacher at a private moment.
· Reading Buddies is not held on school holidays or during inclement weather. If cancelled, an email or phone call will be made to all volunteers ASAP
· Email or call Teri Royer with any questions

Pierre Players Presents "A Little Piece of Heaven"
An unlikely relationship is forged in the quirky tourist shop called “A Little Piece of Heaven”. Restless biker Mike, who works in the shop, finds a friend in the sassy elderly Lily, although their relationship certainly doesn't start out that way. But there's something odd about this little shop owned by the equally odd Elizabeth and Henry. Suspicion and disagreement turn to respect and trust in this place where long lost things are finally found.
