The Hughes Senior Center has been full of energy lately, and if you stopped by this past week, you probably heard plenty of laughter. Bob and Administrator Debbie shared highlights from the center, including a spirited game of balloon volleyball that had residents, staff, and even the kitchen crew jumping in to play. The center also hosted a pie-in-the-face fundraiser that brought plenty of laughs while raising $687.59 for programs at the senior center.
