About a week after the glittery ball dropped in Times Square welcoming 2025, the Methuen Senior Activity Center rang in the New Year with lots of laughs, singing and dancing.
Director Ashley Shaheen and Activities Coordinator Jennifer Loiselle joined forces to put together the party, complete with a DJ and plenty of appetizers for the nearly 75 people who came to have a great time.
The Methuen High School students who participate in the Adopt-a-Grandparent program set up the decorations and put together the appetizer platters as well as a Sparkling Cider tower.
Shaheen said, “This is wonderful! Everyone had a terrific time.”
Loiselle was happy to say, “What a great party! We’re all having so much fun!”
