In April and May, 2016 we added 37 new members. They are: Peggy Alberts, Joyce Ander, Josephine Bout, Debra

Welcome to all of you from the Senior Staff. We hope you find many things to interest you in this newsletter and
that you find a home away from home here at the Center.
Dear Seniors,
As I write this, I am still looking forward
to this year's Grandparent’s Day program .
However, by the time you receive it, it will
hopefully be another great memory that
you and your grandchildren are able to
share forever.
Warren Township hosted a shredding event on May 21st.
It was quite successful with our residents taking advantage of this free service to bring us 86 bins of their
important documents to have shredded securely.
I want to remind you that it is important to check your
credit reports periodically especially if you suspect you
may be a victim of identity theft. We can help you with
this. Our Township Administrator, Ryan Johnson, is
available to check your credit report for you. Please call
him to make an appointment. His number is 847-2441101 extension *125.
Now that the weather has finally turned warm, please remember NEVER to leave your pets in your car.
Animals are easily overcome by heat exhaustion. On a
hot summer day, the inside of a vehicle heats up quickly.
For instance, on an 85 degree day, the temperature inside
your car with the windows open will reach 102 degrees in
ten minutes. In 30 minutes it will get to 120 degrees.
Parking in the sun and on asphalt can increase those temperatures. Within ten minutes an animal can become very
ill and even die. If we spot an animal in a vehicle on our
campus, we will try to locate the owner but, if we cannot,
we will call the Lake County Sheriff department and have
the animal removed. This kind of neglect is considered a
Class C misdemeanor.
If you stop by the Center, please feel free to bring your
pet inside with you. You just need to make sure they are
on a leash or in your arms and are not likely to bite anyone. Please leave your pets at home while you run errands or take them inside with you.
Suzanne D. Simpson
Dear Members,
The bulk of the construction has been completed downstairs in the Flex Room. Although there is more work to do,
we have been able to use the enlarged space to move most of you off the wait lists for Theresa’s classes. We hope
you enjoy the new space.
As you know, all the parking spaces near the building now require a handicapped parking placard. Those spaces are
still not enough to serve all of our disabled members. Those spaces are most in demand on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Please remember this when deciding where to park. If you can easily walk from the parking lot but have a
placard, please park in the handicapped spots in the lots. Those of you who attend Body Conditioning classes
should always park in the parking lots. Thank you for your thoughtful consideration of those who cannot walk from
the lots. Remember, our Senior Center staff are always willing to park your car and get it for you if there are no
spots in the circle available and you are unable to walk from the parking lot.
I am very excited that Judy Sneyd has been trained and will be offering a class specifically for those of you with
Parkinson’s disease. This class will be on Thursdays at 12:30 beginning July 7th. See Page 21 for more details.
Save the date: Walmar t phar macists will be her e on Wednesday, October 19th to pr ovide flu, pneumonia and
whooping cough vaccines. There will be more information in the next newsletter.
On Monday, July 18th, the Senior Center will close at 1:00 PM. We will be having a staff training and no
staff will be available. There will be NO Movement and Balance, Double-deck Pinochle, Chess, or Computer
Lessons that afternoon. I apologize for the inconvenience.

ILLINOIS MEDICARE-MEDICAID ALIGNMENT INITIATIVE
The Illinois Medicare-Medicaid Alignment Initiative (MMAI) is a program designed to improve and
streamline healthcare for individuals who are dual eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid within the state of Illinois. Through the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services, those that are dual eligible can now receive the benefits of Medicare Part A, Part B and Part D prescription coverage in one comprehensive healthcare plan. By encompassing Medicare and Medicaid benefits into
one plan, CMS and DHFS hope to improve the quality of care for those who qualify without, cost shifting or the
crossover claims that often make simultaneously billing Medicare and Medicaid difficult. This program began in
2014 and those that qualify who are new to the program may have already begun to receive notices and applications through the mail.
You will be automatically enrolled in the MMAI program if:
You are a resident of the Greater Chicago or Central Illinois Area
21+ years old and entitled to Medicare Part A and enrolled in Part B and Part D
Eligible for and enrolled in Medicaid due to Aged, Blind and Disabled category of Assistance
Do not receive developmental disability services or participate in Home and Community-Based Services waiver program for Adults with Disabilities
Are not eligible for Medicaid due to spend-down clause
Do not participate in the Illinois Medicaid Breast and Cervical Cancer program
Do not have Comprehensive Third Party Insurance
Even if you are automatically enrolled in MMAI, you can opt-out at anytime. Because it is a program designed to save the state money, it may not be beneficial to the individual. You may choose to opt out. By
choosing to opt-out, individuals will receive separate Medicare and Medicaid as they do currently. If you wish to
enroll in the MMAI program or have any questions, you may contact an enrollment counselor at Illinois Client Enrollment Services at 1-877-912-8880 or 1-866-565-8576(TTY).
For general questions about this program, please feel free to contact either Sherie Palmer at extension *509
or myself at extension *513.
LIHEAP SUMMER PROGRAM HIATUS
As of the printing of this newsletter, the information we have is that the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, provided by the Community Action Partnership of Lake County, will be postponed for the summer of 2016.
This program is designed to help reduce the costs associated with the electric bill and gas bill of individuals that
qualify. Unfortunately, due to funding, LIHEAP will not commence this summer but is set to continue this fall.
Please continue to read and check the Warren Township Senior Services newsletter for updates.

dispatcher. American Taxi and Gurnee Red & Black Flash Cab accept our tickets.
Please remember that if you are calling the companies to ask if they serve a particular area, you must say you have
the Warren Township tickets - not the name of the town in which you live. They have our services under Warren
Township.
If you want to travel to Rosemont for a show, the taxi service is complicated because the City of Rosemont will only allow cab companies licensed by them to pick up at the theater. Special arrangements have to be made.

July 29th: “The Big Short” Comedy/Dr ama. Rated R for pervasive language and some
sexuality/nudity. This movie goes a long way towar d making the 2008 global collapse of the

August 5th: “Hello, My Name is Doris” Comedy/Dr ama. Rated R for language. Sally Field

late mother. She meets John Fremont (played by Max Greenfield), a much younger man, and
convinces herself that they are meant for each other. When Doris begins showing up at John’s
favorite stomping grounds, she wins over his friends with her eclectic vintage wardrobe, quirky
naiveté and enthusiasm for their rooftop knitting circle. Her new life brings Doris a thrilling perspective, but creates a rift between her and her longtime friends and family, who believe she’s
making a fool of herself over a guy half her age. Eager for all the experiences she has missed out
on, Doris throws caution to the wind and follows her heart for the very first time. 1 hr 35 mins.
