The Dunkirk Adult Day Care Center would like to give a big “thank you” to Ronald Lyman, who was so kind and donated a pool table to have at the Dunkirk site. When the participants were asked what new activities they would like to do, several had stated that they would like to get a pool table. Lyman was one of them who had suggested it would be nice to have, and a few days later, he was donating a pool table.

The participants just love it. They truly enjoy playing against one another and they tell stories about when they were on pool leagues years ago. Everyone at the Dunkirk Adult Day is very appreciative.
