The Dragon's Head Blog: Seniors’ Day in the Netherlands

In the Netherlands, October 7 is called National Day of Seniors, a reason for us to organise an event for the senior members in our society. So we invited them to our centre in Helmond and asked them to bring a senior friend. Twenty-three seniors and seniors-in-training joined for a chat, a demo, a set, a trial lesson, a guided tour through the centre and a delicious high tea with homemade treats brought by all. We notice that seniors events are unique … they have a special atmosphere. We would like to invite everybody to try to experience this in one of the next seniors’ activities.
