St. Patrick's Day is Sunday, and those at the Pine Street Senior Center celebrated early on Thursday with a party that included great food and some bingo.

The event was coordinated by Mindy Grose, the new senior center director.

Grose started her new position just three weeks ago after working for 20 years at a retirement community, in Wisconsin.

The Senior Center is open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday through Friday.
