Q. Can I attend any Senior Center regardless of where I live?
A. You may attend any one of the six Senior Centers in the County to enjoy a noon meal Monday through Friday through the Council on Aging's Senior Dinner Program. Each Senior Center has its own personality so feel free to attend more than one until you find your "perfect fit". Many of the Centers have a nominal annual membership fee which allows its members to enjoy other activities at the Center such as classes and movies. You do not need to be a member at a Center though to enjoy the noon meal.
