Senior
citizens from Fall River and surrounding towns gather at the Veterans'
Memorial on Bank Street on the last Friday of every month to dance to live
music by Al Deston
and his band. The one held on March 28, 2014 was the first one scheduled by Re-Creation
(CD-REC) since the first of the year due to the snowy
winter weather on the January and February dates. Re-Creation staff provided
refreshments and a soup and sandwich lunch. Dancing provides a terrific opportunity for older persons to get some moderate
exercise while enjoying a fun social event. "We have a great time every
month," commented band leader Al Deston. "I wish more people
would try this," he added. Click
