Programs & Activities

At our senior luncheon sites, the Coalition offers weekday social, educational and exercise programs. Card games, day trips, Bingo, intergenerational programs, book discussion groups, low vision support groups, health screenings, and foot clinics keep our seniors active while generating lots of fun! Two caregiver support groups are also offered monthly (one in Spanish).

BINGO Fridays - 10:30 - 11:30 am
Join us for a rousing game of Bingo each Friday at WPCRC.  Each game costs 5¢ with all proceeds paid out to the winners.  Bingo players are invited to join us for lunch afterwards but may play Bingo without signing up for lunch.

Exercise for Seniors - Wednesdays, 10:30 am
NESCO and MSCR team up to offer chair based Yogacise classes at WPCRC.  Certified yoga instructor, Carolyn Gantner, provides a program involving gentle and slow exercises performed in a chair or using a chair for balance and support.  No experience necessary.
