Pottsboro Senior Center Opens

Pottsboro Senior Center

Recently opened, the Pottsboro Senior Center provides activities and lunches for those 60 years old or older on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 10 am to 1 pm.

It’s a great way to meet new people without feeling alone or out of place and just visit with another person, share a few laughs, smile a lot and learn something new.

Located at 104 N. Main (rear entrance of the Pottsboro Library) the center serves lunch at 11:30 am.  Call 903-463-1711 to make reservations by 9:30 am on the day of attendance. 
Activities include live music on the second Thursday of every month, provided free by The Nothing Fancy Band.  Band members are all seniors too! Other activities include Bingo, movies, dominoes and crafts.

TCOG provides a speaker monthly on relevant topics such as benefits counseling, Medicare enrollment and preparing a will.
Field trips have included the Hagerman Wildlife Refuge, Harbor Wildlife Museum, Choctaw Casino Resort, and seeing South Pacific at Grayson Community College. TAPS provides transportation for field trips and there is no cost to seniors for any trips, activities or meals.  Meals are provided by Meals on Wheels.

The Lake Texoma Rotary, City of Pottsboro, Meals on Wheels of Texoma, Pottsboro Area Library and TCOG’s Area Agency on Aging are all sponsors. Donations are greatefully accepted. 
If you, or someone you know, needs a little outing once in a while, I highly recommend the Senior Center.  If I can answer any questions, feel free to call me, Ann Murray, at 903-327-3728.
