Went here for the unveiling of a time capsule from 1974. It was a really nice place and I enjoyed myself at the program. Got lots of nice snacks and drinks too.

This place was amazing, very structured I enjoyed the assigned seating for the seniors, the hour by hour interactive activities, chair exercises. The hot meal was rather sparse. Clean, great lighting awesome volunteers. I highly recommend this for seniors!
