Welcome!

  • Concord’s Senior Center is a gathering place for citizens to broaden their horizons and to stimulate their minds, bodies, and spirits.
  • The Center provides Concord residents more than a hundred recreational, social, medical, educational, nutritional and cultural services and programs.
  • By offering essential services, beneficial activities and special functions, the Center has become a multi-service location providing one-stop shopping for seniors and where the staff members welcome and strive to serve seniors and their families.
  • The guiding philosophy is that seniority is not about getting old – it’s about staying young, feeling good and being well.

How does one find out what’s going on at the Center?

  • Visit the Center front desk for publications and fliers. Read the bulletin boards. Ask questions.
  • Several publications contain information about upcoming events:
    • Seniority: a quarterly publication produced by the Senior Center and available at its reception desk.
    • The Activity Guide: published quarterly by the City of Concord and mailed to its residents. Copies are available at the reception desk.
    • Seniors on the Go: a Senior Citizens Club monthly newsletter, mailed only to its members. Copies are often available at the Club’s office, across the lobby from the reception desk.
