Christmas Bazaar 2017
The Rainier Annual Christmas Bazaar is coming up. Please bring your Christmas Crafts and home baked goodies in for the sale, which is being held on November 17th & 18th from 10 AM - 4 PM.
We usually have many hand sewn items, items made of glass, wood and other wonderful Christmas decorations and gifts to choose from.
We offer quite a large variety of baked goodies: Cookies, Cakes, Pies, Breads, Brownies, Fudge, Rice Crispy Treats and so much more to choose from!
Our ladies are working to create many wonderful items just for you!
Thank You for Donating to the Olympia Union Gospel Mission!
It all started with one person's idea. Thank you, Nancy Bay! Nancy cleaned out her closet and brought in 4 bags of gently used winter clothing for the Rainier Senior Center to donate to the Olympia Union Gospel Mission.
Rosemary Sanders ran with the idea!
Everyone at the Rainier Senior Center sends a special "Thank You" to everyone who donated clothing and other usable items to the Olympia Union Gospel Mission. In addition to nice, warm winter clothing, we received business suits from someone who recently retired, sleeping bags and back packs, winter coats shoes, socks & new underwear.
We had so many items we filled up the entry way with bags and bags...and more bags. What a treat for the people who were there to help us unload our vehicles. (Yes, we overfilled 2 vehicles. A full sized truck and a station wagon.
Once we arrived at the Olympia Union Gospel Mission,m we had many people help us unload all of the clothing and other items. We are grateful for everyone's help and donations. Thank you so much!

Recycled Teenagers
We're "Recycled Teenagers" in our Rainier Round-up Days float this year. What fun our members had decorating and riding in our float. Thank you all for your help and participation.
Rainier Round-up Days Bake Sale & Raffle
Our homemade baked goods were a HIT this year! We sold out of many of the wonderful items people made for our yearly Bluegrass Bake Sale! We sold out of the Strawberry Shortcake, Peach and Mixed Berry Cobblers. We had to cut pies and sell pieces by the slice because so many people came back for dessert! All in all our booth was a success this year! Thank you all for your hard work and commitment to our Senior Center!
Eclipse 2017 at the Rainier Senior Center
Monday, August 21, was busy. We not only had a BINGO game, but many seniors went outside, during a BINGO Break, and watched the eclipse with their eclipse glasses. Inside we could see that it was getting dark outside as the moon eclipsed the sun. From our perspective it looked like stormy weather outside. Dark clouds on the horizon. (George & I stayed inside with a few others.)
Even though we bought 50 pairs of certified solar eclipse glasses, we ran out quickly. We weren't going to look at the eclipse without a pair of the glasses.
