    Since many centers were shut during the pandemic, what kind of outreach are they doing?

    Like that parking lot bingo...and trivia.  Sounds like fun.  Getting out of house safely!

    So many charitable activities.  Did they do this during COVID?

    So interesting that they moved back inside with 90% vaccinated.  Wow...then the breakthrough infections.  Oh so difficult!

    Wow!  Totally fee-based senior center.  Never heard of that.  And 650 members at $125 yearly.  I am impressed.  A new model?
