Important Announcement


Safety and wellness are our main concerns. At this time, we are not offering any in-person activities in our facility except:

  • Foot Care Appointments
  • Defensive Driving
  • Tax Assistance (starting mid-Feb.)


There is a light at the end of the tunnel and we’re hopeful that some activities can resume soon.

In the meantime, our office is open and we are here to help you! We suggest mailing payments for classes/event.

Thank you for your understanding. We will get through this together!

How do I "Zoom"?


Zoom is a fun (and easy) way to teleconference with numerous people, right on your home computer. It includes audio and video, with your screen looking something like the Brady Bunch.

Once you figure it out, you can attend Senior Center events, as well as ‘meet’ with friends, family, church groups, classes and more! Over 200 million people use Zoom each day—and if they can figure it out, so can you!


Just type "Zoom" in your browser and you will see dozens of instructional videos or CLICK HERE for an easy explanation.
