The Senior Connection re-opened Monday, March 7, and has been bustling with activity since. From our congregate lunches to fitness classes, live music and more, we’re thrilled to welcome the Blaine County community back to our center.
April is National Volunteer Appreciation Month across the United States, and this month we’re celebrating our treasured volunteers who commit themselves daily to serving our Blaine County seniors.
We invite the community to visit the Senior Connection and learn more about our services, programs and volunteer opportunities we can offer you. You may find that volunteering with the Senior Connection and the sense of satisfaction that comes with supporting our senior community is good for your health! A wise man once said, “The more love you give, the more love you get,” and nothing is as strong as the heart of a volunteer.
Call us at (208) 788-3468 to learn more about how you can get involved in all that we do at the Senior Connection.
