It's always a pleasure to visit the South Lemhi Senior Center on Hayden Creek alongside the Lewis & Clark Trail 20 miles south of Salmon, Idaho. The folks at the Center are gracious hosts and they make us feel like long lost friends. It's a genuine step back in time there as the building is about 100 years old. The imposing two story wood structure was once the gov't Indian school back in the days when the Lemhi Shoshones lived here.South Lemhi enjoys a faithful following of folks who come to lunch every Tuesday and Thursday like clockwork. Barbara and Alden have been volunteering there for at least 30 years, probably a lot more but they aren't counting. Other volunteers have been helping for 15 or 20 years. You can feel the kinship at South Lemhi when you drive up in the front lawn. It's a special place, that's for sure. RSVP will be conducting a VRE (Volunteer Recognition Event) for those dedicated helpers on July 18.
We took a few photos June 11 and May 14. They are online in Picasa web albums located at the Center's webpage: http://idahovolunteer.org/southlemhi
