senior center services and programming

Local senior center activities, support services, and resource coordination.

Whether the AARP grant is awarded and, if it is, what specific equipment/services are purchased and what ongoing costs (if any) follow.

Typically discussed at Advisory Recreation Board. Check back when the next agenda is published.

The clearest recent update is money tied to Senior Center use at the Community House: a $5,000 donation for the Senior Center Library area and a $15,000 AARP grant request for better Wi‑Fi/technology. If the grant comes through, the practical question for residents is what changes in day-to-day access—classes, help sessions, or just stronger internet for seniors using the space.
