Happy Pi Day! 🥧📐

Today, March 14 (3.14), we celebrate π (pi) — the famous mathematical number that represents the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. But let’s be honest… around here we’re just as happy celebrating with a slice of pie! 😄

At the Bellingham Senior Center, we love any reason to bring people together for a little fun, learning, and maybe a sweet treat. Whether you’re a math whiz or just a fan of apple, blueberry, or chocolate cream pie, today is the perfect day to celebrate!

Tell us in the comments:
🥧 What’s your favorite kind of pie?

We look forward to seeing you at the center soon for more fun, friendship, and maybe even a slice of something sweet! 💙
