Senior Squids - a new social networking group for Squidoo lensmasters over age fifty

Are you over age fifty? Are you a Squidoo lensmaster? If the question is YES to both, you're welcome to join Senior Squids... for those of us born a while back.

I love being an older citizen and I hope you do too. I love networking with others my own age. Of course I still love networking with younger people too, but having a special retreat space for just older people is a blessing.

If you feel that way too, please join this new group... I will enjoy creating new friendships there in the months to come.





Here's how to join:

Why 50?

...it is a nice, round number.

The local senior club takes in people over age 55. I thought I'd give it a little lee-way. If people over 50 are comfortable with being in a group for 'seniors' they're certainly welcome.

The fiftieth birthday is a frightening, major event for many of us. I think if we can live through that, we deserve something special, like a little social club to hang out at.

These are lensographies for challenges we did...

...yes, we had lots of fun building new lenses together!
