Van Buren Township Senior Center

Van Buren Township Senior Center Senior Center of Van Buren Township Today the need for transportation continues to grow.

In 1976, September Days Senior Center was officially founded and landed its first home within the walls of Quirk Elementary School located on Quirk Road. After only three months of operation, the center’s membership reached 300 members and was well underway offering a variety of programs and services for mature adults. The center moved into the Van Buren Township Hall in the mid to late 80’s, and

through the years the center expanded in many ways. A beautiful large outdoor garden area was added where many events have taken place and a much needed Transportation Program was implemented in the early 90’s. Now almost 40 years later the membership is well over 2,000 with more than 30 weekly programs and classes ranging from fitness, photography, and computers just to name a few.

From getting a behind-the-scenes look to stepping out onto the field, every moment was unforgettable.

We even had the chance to see Miggy’s Triple Crown display up close. What an amazing experience! Go Tigers!

We had such a wonderful time at our recent Lunch & Learn with Friends of Michigan Animals Rescue🐾

A huge thank you to their team for coming out and sharing the incredible work they do and for bringing Ranger along! He definitely stole the show and brought so many smiles to our senior members ❤️

We’re also so grateful to our amazing community for showing up in such a big way. The outpouring of donations for FMAR was truly incredible, and it means so much to support an organization making a difference for animals in need.

Thank you again to everyone who helped make this event so special. We love seeing our community come together!
