Last week, the Tuscarora Senior Activity Center celebrated National Senior Citizens Day with a fun and memorable Sock Hop.

Several participants dressed in their best 1950s-inspired attire, adding to the festive atmosphere. Everyone enjoyed listening to classic 1950s music, reminiscing, and spending time together with friends.

Thank you to all of our participants who joined us and helped make the celebration such a wonderful success. It was a special day honoring the friendships, memories, and experiences that make our senior center such a wonderful place to be.
