Center for Creative Retirement-Week of October 14
The Center for Creative Retirement (CCR) began its 33rd year on Monday September 9. Retirees seeking an intellectual challenge and social engagement will find in the program just what they are seeking.
CCR meets Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays in the LIU Building on the campus of Suffolk Community College in Riverhead.
Each day brings a fresh perspective on some topic that members have chosen as part of the syllabus. CCR volunteers research and present the topics. As a member, you can look forward to a rich tapestry of new facts and perspectives.
After Monday's Columbus Day recess, join us on Tuesday from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. for Part 2 of the play, "The Solid Gold Cadillac." Enjoy this comedy about greedy buinessmen and the flaky stockholder who puts their feet to the fire. See CCR members reading the parts of the comic characters.
We continue at noon with a one-hour current events roundtable where foreign and domestic news of the week is discussed. It's a lively back-and-forth exchange that's presided over by an experienced moderator.

On Thursday, at 10 a.m., we continue our film series on Director Billy Wilder with his 1950 film-noire classic, "Sunset Boulevard," starring Gloria Swanson, William Holden, and Eric von Stroheim. The film is the progenitor of the successful Broadway musical of the same name. Discuss the film during the brown-bag lunch that follows. Get behind-the-scenes facts, and compare critiques with your fellow viewers.
