Senior center programs show attendance gains as classes and dances expand
Summary
Board members reported growth across Branch Connection programs: ThinkAbilities has 60+ online participants, Monday dances drew about 95 people and bingo and physical-activity classes have grown; volunteers and instructors were credited for the increases.
Board members reviewed recent programs and events, reporting rising attendance and volunteer support.
One member said ThinkAbilities has "over 60 people online that do ThinkAbilities," and others reported a recent dance drew about 95 attendees and that Wednesday programs have expanded from a small group to near-capacity. Volunteers and instructors were singled out for keeping programs running and helping members reengage after the center's renovation and reopening.
Members described ongoing volunteer recruitment, front-desk coverage and the role of instructors filling in for colleagues on leave. The board encouraged members to continue outreach and to help staff publicize events and encourage members to return.
