Free Lunch and Game Day, November 16 starting at 11:30 a.m. here at the Senior Center and sponsored by the Adams County Manor and Hospice of Hope. Any senior 60+ may come and participate in this event.
Happy Thanksgiving! All of us here at the Agency would like to wish all of you a very wonderful Thanksgiving celebration. The office will be closed on November 25 and 26 to celebrate Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving reminds us to pause and think of the things we are all grateful for. Many of us are grateful for family, for friends and good neighbors, our homes, good health, food on the table, warmth, and the ability to still live and celebrate the freedoms we have. Remember too, our Armed Services Personnel who have given us the ability to continue having these freedoms.
