Members of Johannesburg East South African Association of Retired Persons (SAARP) were recently treated to a musical performance.
The performance was put on by Eastleigh resident Mervyn Miller and his musical partner Eileen Wainer at the Edenvale Community Centre.
Lilly Picker, a member of SAARP, said the association has about 55 members from the areas surrounding Edenvale and some from Johannesburg East.
The musical performance was just one example of the events hosted by SAARP.
“We arrange talks, music mornings, bingo, quizzes and in general anything that people might enjoy for relaxation and pleasure,” said Lilly.
