AP) GREENSBORO, Pa. Giving sultry looks and sexy smiles to the camera, 12 Pittsburgh-area women recently posed at Monongahela historical sites, baring it all -- or almost all -- to create a charity-driven calendar. The catch?
The nearly nude ladies are all in their 70s and 80s, driven to adventure by a desire to raise money for a historical society in Monongahela, a small community 17 miles southeast of Pittsburgh.
Overcoming fears the priest would walk by during a photo shoot or embarrassing their children and grandchildren, the women -- all well-known members of the tight-knit community -- are now eagerly awaiting the calendar's debut next month. The money it generates will go to the Monongahela Area Historical Society.
"One of the advantages of being old is that you can do anything you want and get away with it," said 80-year-old Lois Phillips, who as Miss September was photographed in the back seat of a 1968 Mercury convertible.
The calendar was the brainchild of 80-year-old Lorys Crisafulli. She came up with the idea when she saw the movie Calendar Girls, a 2003 flick starring Helen Mirren in which a group of British women publish a nude calendar to raise money for cancer research.
"I thought, why don't we do that in Monongahela?" she told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. "We need something to put us on the map, to get us going."
Crisafulli spent the next few weeks finding sponsors, a free photographer and an eager group of septuagenarians and octogenarians with enough spunk to show some flesh.
A former 5th grade teacher, Crisafulli is about to become better known as Miss January, who lounges in a black convertible covered in pearls, holding a champagne glass in one hand and dangling slinky sandals from the other.
Some of the other photos are more risque.
Miss April, Esther Cox, poses in a pasture, nothing but a pink umbrella covering her 75-year-old body. Miss December, Sondra Odelli Bordini, gives a sultry glance from behind a poinsettia centerpiece with two strategically placed red Christmas balls.
Guilty!
Fellow #7 looks downright anemic like one of Picasso’s models.
Where do I sign up?
Allright that’s it. I’m like the whole MILF thing, but GMILF is waaaaay over the top. Chances are these gals are not “Racquel Welch” look alikes but rather Granny Clampett like G’mas.
Ahahahaha! It’s hilarious. I’m giving this to every male I know for X-mas.
Any old men doing similar things?
A new category: GILF
G=granny...
ugh
Former labor secretaries also.

LOL I wouldn’t be surprised if they don’t make a goodly amount of money for the historical society. People will just HAVE to buy the calendars. It’s the same characteristic that drives people to gawk at a car accident.
People gawk at car accidents because of sagging breasts and age spots? :)
My eyes!!!!!!
Wanna bet all of these women vote Democrat? Honestly, is there no sense of decency left anymore? And I resent the attempts to justify this behavior as "spunky", or to raise money for charity. No it is NOT spunky, it demeans all of us by yet again lowering societal standards.
What a great example to our children. /s These women ought to be ashamed of themselves.
We had one done last year by local men in the community to raise funds for the Sr. Meals on Wheels program.
I was atonished as were many other woman at two of the older gentlemen.
Very fit tone bodies.
As for your remark I would think your more disgusting.
Also don’t see you growing old with any woman as a life long partner.
These calanders are done with taste and not the privates showing...go back and read the article.
Usually when done it is more of a humorous community event and raises money for good causes.
When the local ladies did one we were able to put a wheelchair lift in the building where the meals are served. Not enough room to do a 1 in 12 ADA ramp.
The calendar will have extra goodies like the follow list of games that older people can play
10 games for the mature folks
1: Sag, You’re it
2: Pin the Toupee on the bald guy.
3: 20 questions shouted into your good ear.
4: Kick the bucket
5: Red Rover, Red Rover, send the doctor right Over.
6: Doc Goose.
7: Simon says something incoherent.
8: Hide and go pee.
9: Chutes and full bladders
10: Musical recliners.
Yep.
See my post up the way.
Mr. May was in his late 60’s but had the body of a 30yr old and not an ounce of fat on him.
Tall and lean.
The guys show way more than the gals.
One old fellow took a pic riding his Harley nude and they just smudged that area a bit.
What got me was it was on the road by my house but I didn’t see the shoot.
Everyone in PA votes Dem.
“Everyone in PA votes Dem.”
Not outside Philly and Pittsburgh they don’t.
