The Center is open! Masks are mandatory and social distancing is observed. Our times of operation are Tuesday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. for game night and Thursday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Everyone must sign in for CDC tracking, answer virus-related questions and sign a form before participating in any activity. We are now closed on Wednesdays.

Are you a senior? Please come in for pool, cards, puzzles, computer use, library, visiting, knitting or just to watch TV.

Bingo has gone on a hiatus. During this hiatus we will be looking for more volunteers to work bingo. As we see the daily numbers rising we are also concerned for the health and safety of our players. The board will evaluate and make a decision to reopen when we have enough workers and it is safe for everyone. Keep your eye on this space for future Center dinners.
