Dear Friends,
Happy Independence Day! Usually, it is the Senior Center that brings people together but we’ve had to adjust the way we do just about everything recently.
I am excited to announce we are launching Senior Pen Pals to help our seniors and residents stay connected during this time at home!
Senior Center staff will match Town of Huntington residents with seniors for a traditional letter-writing correspondence. If you wish to partici-pate, please call the Senior Center at (631) 351-3253 or email [email protected]. Residents who wish to participate can write a letter to a senior and mail it to:
Town of Huntington Senior Center 423 Park Avenue Huntington, NY 11743
Our great Senior Center team has distributed approximately 2,300 meals weekly, continued our essential residential repair and in-home services, Adult Day Care support services and telephone reassurance throughout the entire shutdown… we are here for you and the Senior Center is just a phone call away at (631) 351-3253!
If you haven’t been watching the Town’s TV channels on Optimum 18 and FIOS 38, tune in to watch exercise videos from our Adult Day Care staff and musical entertainment videos from some of your favorite Senior Center performers. You can also tune in on the Town of Huntington Sen-ior Center Facebook page.
We have missed you terribly and we all look forward to seeing you sometime soon, when we can safely open the doors for all at the Senior Center.
Stay safe, social distance, wear a mask and wash your hands often!
