Every first Wednesday of the month, a volunteer from the NM Library comes to the Center’s Richmond Dining Room with a new selection of books for you to “sign-out”.

What a better way to get over “hump day” than with lunch and a movie? Join us as we turn the Dining Room into a movie theater!

The group works on individual projects with help from other members when needed and on group quilts.

Join in the excitement of Wii Bowling, a virtual bowling game that simulates all the movements of bowling minus the heavy ball!

We are a casual group who enjoy gathering on the first Tuesday of every month to lift our spirits with song.

Meeting every week throughout the year, anyone can work on their own project, which may be for a family member, a friend, or a piece that is donated to organizations.

A low impact exercise program which includes strength training with light hand weights, stretchy bands and chair exercises.

Three different classes available including Chair Yoga and Gentle Yoga. Learn and practice deep breathing and relaxation techniques while improving balance, strength, and flexibility.

For active older adults who are looking for a modified Zumba® class that recreates the original moves you love at a lower-intensity. Introduces easy-to-follow Zumba® choreography that focuses on balance, range of motion and coordination.

For one hour a month, young visitors from the Children's Center come in to be read storybooks, enjoy a snack, and maybe even do a little craft with our Senior Volunteer Readers. New Volunteers always welcome!
