1. Who can go on senior center day-long trips?

Any adult 18 years old or older can go on a day-long trip with the senior center. Individuals do not have to be a member of the senior center to sign up nor do they have to know any member who is going. Members of the senior center and their guests have the first opportunity to sign up (on days one and two of registration). Then open registration starts on day three for any adult who would like to join us.

2. Who can go on senior center mini-trips?
