Senior Center Project Update

from Senior Moments · host Carol Chiarito

Our last podcast was the kick off to The Love a Senior CENTER project, as a part of the Rural Exposure projects within the company. Our mission then was to re-open the closed local senior center of this small rural community in Northeastern Colorado. Well, we did it!! This project began on January 12 and the Senior Center has now been open since March 1, 2023! This podcast shares what has happened the past 6 months, along with an interview with Betty Jo Rogers and Charlotte Smith, two of the club’s members who frequent the senior center known as the Wray Fifty Five and Over Club. With over 1 Million older adults being served in America each year by local senior centers, the need for the services will only continue to grow as the boomer tsunami strengthens. The need for senior centers and a central gathering place for social, informational, and instructional events is becoming more and more important than ever before. To learn more about The Wray 55 and Over Club, visit the website we created for them at https://www.55andoverclub.org/ To learn more about the Love A Senior CENTER Project visit our website www.loveasenior.org/project .
