people," says Stuart McCorkle,
project director for the nutrition
program for the elderly.
"I am deeply concerned that
while there have been programs
for ahnost every other grouping
of people, not until recently
with the coming of senior
programs to Mason and Thurston
Counties has there been an active
interest in the day-by-day
problems faced by older
Americans•
"After all, they are the ones
who pioneered the West, paved
the roads, built the schools.
They deserve the very best that
society can provide for them in
their retiring years•"
McCorkle, born and reared in
Seattle, came to Shelton on
February 1 to work in Thurston
and Mason Counties in a
program under the auspices of
the senior services of th6 two
counties.
"The program," McCorkle
explains, "is funded by the U.S.
Department of Health, Education
and Welfare/Community Services
Administration through the
Washington State Office on
Aging with some local
contributions and funding on a
matching basis.
"Basic legislation was the
Older Americans Act of 1965, an
attempt to provide a wide
spectrum of services, including
nutritious meals, to American
citizens over the age of 60 years•
"I agree with the act,"
McCorkle declares, "that it is of
the utmost importance for older
citizens to become aware of the
many kinds of assistance already
on the books for the express
purpose of helping them to live a
more enriched life. Many persons
do not know that these
opportunities exist."
The present program was
initiated 18 months ago by
Thurston County Parks and
Recreation Department and has
Stuart McCorkle
since grown to a program now
administered by Senior Services
of Mason Thurston Counties
headquartered in Shelton.
Approximately 43,000
nutritious hot meals are served
each year in seven centers
located throughout the
two-county area where a wide
variety of services is offered to
senior citizens.
Stuart McCorkle lived as a
child in a rural setting at the
north end of Seattle.
"I grew up with horses and
cows, chickens and ducks and all

reminisces, "but the city moved
in on us. ! now live in
downtown Seattle, but only go
home on weekends.
"i am staying in Shelton
motels while I look for a
country home. I want to have,
animals again."
McCorkle is an avid
outdoorsman. He enjoys hunting,
fishing, backpacking and
camping. In Seattle he
participates on community teams
to play football, soccer and
rugby.
"My true hobby is people,"
he maintains. "I like to work
with youth as well as with the
elderly. I'v been active in
YMCA. I've been a Boy Scout
leader and a Big-Brother advisor.
I also served on the board of
North Central Council of Camp
Fire."
Stuart McCorkle was
graduated from the University of
Washington with a degree in
political science• Sixty hours of
graduate study were completed
in several eastern universities.
Although the nutrition
program is now serving at funded
capacity, the Shelton office is
always anxious to learn of
special hardship cases. Persons
needing assistance may telephone
426:2568 or 426-2571 or may
write to Mason County Senior
Center, 208 Grove Street,
Shelton.
