Cynthia Cupidore (centre), member of the Lions Club of New Kingston, was fully in charge as she conducted a water aerobics exercise session for a group of senior citizens during a treat at the Rockfort Mineral Bath in Kingston last Saturday. More than 70 senior citizens benefited from the annual event, which was organised by the Lions Club of New Kingston, Food For The Poor (FFP) Jamaica and the Jamaica Red Cross. In addition to experiencing the curative powers of the mineral water, the senior citizens were also provided with a delicious Jamaican breakfast and gift packages containing toiletries. The event was held in observance of Senior Citizens month.
