MARGARETVILLE — The Seasoned Social Club of Middletown township will hold a holiday party on Wednesday, December 17 at 12:30 p.m. in the Margaretville United Methodist Church’s lower-level dining hall, at 55 Church Street.

The party will feature caroling with local pianist Kent Brown, plus holiday games and a free raffle. The club will provide snacks, and invites attendees to contribute some of their own favorite treats.

Before the meeting, at 12:15 p.m., Susan Sainsbury of the Office for the Aging will present a brief roundup of OFA services available to eligible seniors, including an update on the HEAP program’s financial assistance for heating costs, which was delayed by the government shutdown.

A Senior Dining Program meal is served at the church every weekday at 11:30; call 845-586-4764 to reserve a $5 hot meal for ages 60 and up, and $10 for ages 55-60. Wednesday’s meal will include cran-orange chicken, egg noodles, green beans, caesar salad and peaches.

The Social Club usually meets on the fourth Wednesday of every month. December’s meeting is a week early due to the Christmas holiday. New members are welcome; dues are $5 for one year.
