Join The Mens Gathering at CIP!
Hey Buddy
Remember when we were young-uns? Hanging out with the boys, shootin the breeze and clowning on each other? But as we got older,
our circle got smaller. Folks moved away, got busy raising families, working... As time went on some of our friends even started
to pass away. Well, that was getting me down for a while. Then I got to thinking
why dont I make some new friendships and start
having fun again?
We also have what he calls a Fridays Man which is a monthly guest speaker. Mike brings in some very interesting men, so you
can learn something you thought you already knew!
And then there was the time we went to see the Phillies play the Brewers. It was a little chilly
and the Phils lost, but we
still had fun just being out and having a good time.
Youre gonna have to come on out with me next time we all meet up, Bro! If you
then this is the gathering for you!
We meet every Friday 10 am to 12 Noon in the CIP Technology Lab Fee: $5 For more info. contact Marie-Monique Marthol at 215-849-5100 ext. 304
Unless otherwise noted, all events will be held at Center in the Park, in historic Vernon Park, 5818 Germantown Avenue Parking is available on the lot at Rittenhouse & McCallum Streets. Call CIPs Program Office, at 215-848-7722 for more information. | |||

Circle Of Health Acupuncture
The Mens Gathering at Center in the Park is just the place for that! Every Friday we get together in the CIP Technology
Lab for a couple of hours. Our Facilitator, Mike Sommerville, Jr is very knowledgeable about computers and shares a lot with us!
Last week we learned about how to get free music and movies!
We even have trips! We just came back from a fishing trip and had a good time (even though we didnt catch too much of anything)!
Were going to go fishing again in September-but this time to Massachusetts
I hear the catch is a lot better there.
