After a heartwarming presentation, we will enjoy lunch together, as well as our annual Homemade Gift Swap!

Speaker: Emily Fife, CEO of Sierra Senior Providers, Inc.

Sierra Senior Providers play a key role for seniors of Tuolumne County by providing essential services that promote independence, enhance quality of life, and assist the elderly to remain in their homes. Their commitment is to honor and respect the diversity of each individual they serve. To continually strive to improve the quality of our service and earn the trust given to us by others. To partner with other providers, vendors and services for the purpose of providing the best response for the needs of the elderly in our community. To value the work and contributions made by every volunteer, staff member and stakeholder.

COST: $20.00 per person (includes lunch, dessert and non-alcoholic beverages; no-host bar open for additional purchases)

Menu:

• Roasted Butternut Squash Soup

• Housemade Focaccia Bread

Bring:

• A $20 gift for our Handmade Holiday Gift Exchange! Gifts can be handmade by you, or made by someone else (but locally made or sourced in Tuolumne County is preferred! Locally made food or beverage products are okay, too!). Exchange will be White Elephant style, stealing is allowed up to twice per gift. Please no gag gifts.

• If you are able, please consider bringing a wish list item or cash donation for Sierra Senior Providers!

Sierra Senior Providers Wish List:

This year for the holidays, Sierra Senior Provider clients are in NEED of dry dog food for their pets! So often, senior  citizens on a tight budget will give their dogs their own food, when they cannot afford to buy dog food. If you would like to make a donation, here are three ways you can help! 

• (#1 Preferred Donation!) Dry Dog Food, broken up into 1 gallon Ziploc bags

  • Senior Provider drivers are not able to carry large bags of dog food on their routes. You can best help by rebagging the dog food you purchase into gallon-size Ziploc bags.

• Donation of large bags of dog food (We will re-bag your food for you if you are not able to do so)

• Cash or Check Donation made payable to Tuolumne County Senior Center

Speaker: Deborah Hart

Deborah Hart and her husband, George moved from Redwood City to Sonora and opened Dusty’s Den in 1997. They wanted to create a different type of pet supply store for Tuolumne County. Self-grooming tubs were definitely a new concept for this area. Their shop specialized in premium dog and cat foods and all the necessities for a happy, healthy pet. Customers could count on finding different supplements and holistic alternatives to support the health of their animals. After twenty five years of running and loving their shop, they made the decision to sell Dusty’s Den and “graduate from work”. Deborah will share her story of getting to this critical point in her life. Are her ducks all in a row?
