The Emporium Rotary Club attended the Emporium Senior Center for lunch this week.
The Senior Center members joined in for lunch and our meeting. John Andrus, treasurer of the ESC was guest speaker. John gave a history on the startup of senior centers and how the centers survive. Senior centers are self-supporting with no government grants as many suspect. They rely on membership, fundraising and donations to maintain their building and monthly expenses. Lunch is provided Monday thru Friday, age 50 + are welcome. To become a member, dues of $10 per year is suggested. Shown with John is Rotarian and program host Jill Perry, and Rotarian and ESC president Don Perry.
