Senior Luncheon featuring The Song Pipers


Today, in lieu of our monthly Senior Breakfast, Carver Center hosted a Senior Luncheon featuring the musical group, The Song Pipers. The Song Pipers are a not-for-profit musical therapy group established in 1949. This all-female ensemble, singing in four-part harmony, performs for nursing homes, hospitals, and senior citizen centers. Their goal is to bring live music to the elderly and infirm in an effort to make their days brighter and more fulfilling. The Song Pipers performed a selection of Patriotic songs in honor of Veteran’s Day for the 60 senior citizens in attendance.

Carver’s traditional monthly breakfasts for senior citizens features a speaker who addresses issues faced by the aging, such as health care, housing, and legal issues.
