Highest Porportion of people aged 65+ in the nation.

 

 Our picked site that would work best for our new center is BLM land

on the corner of Reagan and Sweetwater. A new Senior Center building on the  7.5 acres

by the Family Rec.

Center would have 200 parking spaces!!

We need the space .

We have 45 parking spaces presently, our new center would park apprx 200 seniors,

staff and visitors to our center. 

Our parking situation is a huge problem, Besides lack of parking we have other problems with our center,

water problems, air quality, ventilation, evacuation and lighting, lack of general sq.ft space to conduct needed

programs and house needed staff! 

 

 Our new senior center will also have a raised stage that would beneficial for programs,

speakers, and entertainment.

You can help us build the New Senior Center Facility by giving a donation to be used either

for " Bricks & Mortor" or Publicity and Marketing.

 

 The Senior Center is a buisiness as well as a center for the delivery of services,

programs, and activities, a focal point-

a network of all services - in the community for all agencies and individuals in Sweetwater County.
