From the Director
By Elyse DeGroot
Wow
, where did the year go? Just
this time last year I was writ-
ing about the focus groups and
surveys we were working on here at the
Senior Center regarding the arrival of the
tsunami of boomers and the possibility of
a name change. And now, just a short year
later, we have launched our new look and
logo! For those of you who weren't able
to attend our 8th Annual Open House and
Boston Post Cane Ceremony, please take
a drive by and come in so I can show it to
you in person.
With the help of a marketing committee
made up of several very dedicated board
and staff members , as well as the guid-
ance of Carol McLeod Design of Mashpee ,
and input from not one but two additional
focus groups, we sorted through piles of
suggestions for name changes. We waffled
back and forth about whether to keep our
name or to go with something new and
different. Ultimately we decided it was
more about the programs and services
that we offer than our name and we will
remain the Barnstable Senior Center.
Next was the challenge of the new tag
line and look. Again, we were presented
with several very intriguing choices and
consulted with the same marketing
committee and focus groups to get their
feedback. The end result is a wonderful ,
very energetic , abstract design repre-
senting the seven villages in the Town
of Barnstable as well as the services and
programs that we offer. Again, it is much ,
much, more than simply The Barnstable
Senior Center. The colors, look and feel of
the logo combined with the new tag line
"Programs and Services for the 50+ Com-
munity" really capture what we are trying
to create. A Senior Center that is sur-
prising, engaging, just a little bit avante
garde , and always moving forward and
welcoming. I hope you will love it as much
as T rln
As always we continue to offer a wide
range of classes, programs and services
this summer. We have three exceptionally
interesting art and drama classes that we
are collaborating on with the Cotuit Cen-
ter for the Arts. No previous art or drama
experience necessary, and check your
inhibitions at the door.

HONORING MOTHER - Bobby Coleman and Elizabeth Hooven
standbeforeaphotograph of theirmother,EvelynColeman. Evelyn
was awarded the Boston Post Cane Award for being the oldest
Barnstable resident for the second year in a row.
At 104years young, Evelyn
Coleman certainly has much
to reflect on. She has seen
many changes in a century of
living, from early telephones
to first televisions.
What Colemanrecallsmost
fondly, however, are life 's
simpler pleasures - farm-
grown vegetables , boats on
the harbor, and homemade
ice cream for dessert.
Barnstable residents will
remember Coleman as the
two-time recipient of the
Boston Post Cane Award,
presented on June 8 during
aceremony at the Barnstable
Senior Center. "I was so sur-
prised," said Coleman while
admiring the flowers from
the patio at Cape Regency in
Centerville. "I didn't know I
was still the oldest."
The award, which began
in 1909, is awarded to the
oldest resident of the town
of Barnstable. According to
unofficial records Coleman
is the first resident to hold
the cane for two consecutive
years. She is also the first
recipient of the Cane after a
16-year hiatus in presenting
the award.
Although Coleman was
unable to attend the awards
ceremony due to inclement
weather, she was thrilled to
be the recipient of the cane
once again."She wants every-
oneto know what awonderful
honor thisis,"said her daugh-
ter, Elizabeth Hooven.
Coleman was born and
lived for 18years in a hamlet
in Nova Scotia where her fam-
ily operated a farm. "Oh, we
had pigs and cows and hens
and goats," said Coleman.
"We ate the best veggies and
the best milk and cream."
Coleman said her father
made shoes for local fisher-
men and woodsmen. "We had
good neighbors," she said of
Nova Scotia.
After arriving on the Cape,
where she met her late hus-
band , Wesley, Coleman came
to appreciate life on the pen-
insula. "I loved everything, "
she said. "The simplicity. It
is a quiet area."
Together she and her hus-
band owned and operated a
small grocery store in Park
Square called, appropriately,
Coleman's.
Evelyn also enjoyed rais-
ing her four children. "I have
three girls and one boy,"
she said, also noting a large
