There are pictures of trips away, meeting with pals and shaping up in style with activities such as belly dancing.
And while it may not be possible at the moment because of the pandemic, we have plenty of reminders of those great times thanks to the Hartlepool Mail archives.
So if you loved the Autumn Club, the St Matthew’s Community Centre Over 60s, or the year you learned Spanish, we have reminders for you all.
1. Learning a new skill
Back to 2009 at the St Matthew's Community Centre Over 60s club. They loved to enjoy theme days including one based around cruises. Here are some of the members learning belly dancing with the help of teacher Marie Gray. Photo: CL
