| About
Us: |
| A
life of leisure begins at home for
area seniors who meet Wednesday afternoons
in the Avon municipal gym for good
company, refreshments and plenty of
fun. The group is open to both men
and women, and meets at 12 noon weekly.
It isn’t necessary to be an
Avon resident. We have people from
Wall, Spring Lake, Belmar, Lake Como
and Bradley Beach. Join in on Bingo,
Rummikub, Bridge, Poker or a game
of your choice. We are full of surprises
and lots of fun. For more information
contact Avon Recreation at 732-502-4517
or avonrec@optonline.net. |
