We, at the Community Center, honor the experience
and wisdom of our elders. It is our goal to not only service the Senior population of the Valley but service them with the highest dignity and respect. We encourage all the generations to reaching across to one another to form a community were all can share their gifts with each other. It is a pleasure to see our seniors, preschoolers, baby boomers and gen-X ers forming bonds at our events. With this over arching goal we look for ways to continue to expand our relationship the Senior branch of Valley Community.

We are offering Senior Lunches every Thursday at the Center. The lunches are more than just a hot, nutritious, yummy meal. They are a gathering! Seniors have a chance to stay in touch with old friends and make new ones among their peers. There are often additional activities offered; such as Health Fairs, book readings, exercise classes and more. There are weekly visits from West Marin Senior Services and monthly visits from a County Health Nurse as well educational material always present to help to address Senior issues. As with all our programming this is not an excusive group but open to all from all generations.
The lunches start at noon. Reservation are required. There is a $2 donation for Seniors and a $6 fee non-senior guest.
For additional Info or the make a reservation contact Suzanne at 488-8888 ext. (#251) or email valleyresourcecenter@sgvcc.org.
WE HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!
