Each May, the Administration for Community
Living celebrates Older Americans Month to
recognize older Americans for their contributions
to the nation. This year, in honor of the 50th
anniversary of the Older Americans Act (OAA),
the Administration is focusing on how older adults
are taking charge of their health, getting engaged in
their communities, and making a positive impact in
the lives of others. The theme for Older Americans
Month 2015 is "Get into the Act."
Older Americans Month provides an opportunity
to raise awareness of the importance of community
engagement as a tool for enhancing the wellbeing of
older adults. Now is the time to "Get into the Act" to
make the benefits of community living a reality for
more older Americans. Together we can promote
healthy aging, increase community involvement
for older adults, and tackle important issues like the
prevention of elder abuse.
The PALM – Center for Positive Aging provides
programs, services, exercises and nutrition classes,
along with health and wellness seminars five
days a week for adults 50 years of age and older
living in Lower Merion and tri county localities.
These offerings are augmented with travel and
touring excursions, craft and painting classes and
seasonal special events that bring the community
together for fun and enjoyable celebrations. The
newest activity at the PALM is The Second 50
Years Meet-up. Active Aging Adults from the tricity area have joined our meet–up where they come
together with friends and associates for fun and
engaging events at the PALM or nearby locations.
If you are interested in joining the meet up to mix
and mingle and enjoy exciting events sign-up at
www.Meetup.com/The Second 50 Year. Get into
the ACT. Remember being 60-ish is not a mid life
crisis, it’s a mid-life exuberance. You have 30 more
years to do what you want to do!!!! Get into the Act
of living, learning, loving and doing all the things
you have read about, studied about or yearned for.
This is YOUR LIFE …… enjoy it!!!

message from the director
May 10 is Mother’s Day and the PALM
extends to all our Mothers and Mothers
everywhere our thanks and blessings upon
you on this special day of celebration. To
those who have had to mother a motherless
child or nurture the life of one in need of
guidance and motherly love, we salute
you and honor you for your kindness and
service. In gratitude for all Mothers we share with you this poem
by G. Kenneth Dillard a member of the PALM Creative Writing
Class.
Gratitude
Would you be grateful for this Spring,
Had not you once felt Winter’s sting?
Or thankful be for Dawn’s first light,
If ne’er you’d seen the dark of night?
Would your heart be touched by a smile, a sigh
If you’d never heard someone cry?
Or treasure home at the close of day
If you’d never been away?
If everything on Earth was good
And all events we understood.
No tears, no pain, no mystery.
What ungrateful creatures we’d all be.
None could be truly grateful for the good our Lord does,
If no one knew what trouble was.
Each teardrop that falls in a time of distress
Can be a stepping-stone to real happiness.
So don’t fret when you see those morning’s shower.
Without them you’d have no tomorrow’s flowers.
For above each cloud there’s a sky of blue
And Sun just waiting to shine on you.
WITF, Central Pennsylvania's affiliate for PBS and NPR, is
offering an exciting initiative for Pennsylvania Department of
Aging (PDA) Senior Community Centers.
The project, called MindMatters, is a pilot program that
delivers a monthly series of intellectually stimulating lectures
by knowledgeable presenters on topics of most interest to older
adults.

message from the director
The PALM Pays Tribute to Our Men &
Women Veterans of The Armed Forces
Memorial Day was formerly known as
Decoration Day and commemorates
all men and women, who have died
in military service for the United
States. It is traditional to fly the flag
of the United States at half mast
from dawn until noon. Many people
visit cemeteries and memorials,
particularly to honor those who
have died in military service. Many
volunteers place an American flag on
each grave in national cemeteries. The
PALM salutes those of our military
members who have died in service
to our country. We also salute our
members now living who have served
our country in various branches of the
armed service; their names follow.

Volunteer of the Year
Awards 2015
The PALM, its members, staff and directors are extremely proud and
grateful to our volunteers for sharing their time, talents and treasures
to make our organization an excellent and enjoyable place for Active
Aging Adults to engage in life sustaining and life affirming activities.
The following Volunteers were recognized for their generous spirits and
service during the PALM’s Annual Volunteer Luncheon on April 17.
We also thank the families of the honorees for coming out and sharing
the day with their loved ones.
Volunteers of the year:
Phylinda Peters John
Alvin Saltzman
Bonnie N. Fay
Lloyd Gardner
Ann Marie Dean
Honorable Mention:
Sharon Bailey
Carol Merrill Bright
Minister Gerald Mills
Jessica Bitsko
We also took this wonderful occasion to say goodbye to Ruth Pillet.
Ruth has been a wonderful supporter of the PALM for more than 10
years serving as the Tap Instructor for the PALM Tappers. Ruth is
retiring from this position but not from the PALM. Our tappers never
made it to Broadway but they did bring a lot of joy to local audiences
with their delightful performances. Thanks so much Ruth we will miss
you.
Thanks to Bryn Mawr
and Haverford
College Students
What a wonderful experience we have had the past several months with
student visitors from the Praxis Program of Bryn Mawr College and
Haverford College. Praxis is a community-based learning program at
Bryn Mawr College that integrates theory and practice through student
engagement in active and relevant field work. PALM was selected as
a Community Partner. PALM members have enjoyed meeting with the
students and discussing issues of aging and the joys AND COMFORT
of having the PALM as a place for them to be with friends, to become
physically fit and partake of a nutritious hot lunch including a tasty
soup and a yummy dessert. The students on the other hand documented
their visits, and had their perceptions on aging turned on its head. The
students learned that while PALM seniors might be up in age but they
are always down for a good time, a good laugh, a fancy two step or
modified hip hop move to the music.
PALM members were also enriched by the students’ Cultural Showcase,
featuring weekly educational presentations that included such subjects
as Martial Arts, history and demonstrations, Life on an Organic Farm on
Orcas Island, Swing Dancing, and Desegregation in American Schools.
We thank all the students and their Instructors for granting us the
privilege to host these fine young women and of course James, for an
eight week PRAXSIS assignment. We were blessed by the opportunity
to host the students and overjoyed to meet them and to learn from them.

OUR MISSION:
To assist adults, 50 years of age and older, to maintain a healthy, satisfying quality of life by providing services and activities in a nurturing environment
that enables them to function more independently in the community. The center is an advocate for unmet needs of senior citizens and a repository of
information to assure them their rights, benefits and opportunities. The PALM is a gathering place where aging is celebrated every day.
