extracurricular activities, and other important types of support to 
senior citizens living in El Paso; and
	WHEREAS, This exemplary organization, which is operated 
under the auspices of the El Paso County Senior Citizens Nutrition 
Program, helps West Texas seniors to remain healthy, active, and 
energetic; dances and aerobics classes are offered at the center, 
which also hosts picnics and out-of-town trips and regularly 
sponsors a wide variety of activities such as bingo, loteria, 
dominoes, and card games; and
