Yesterday we celebrated “Sophisticated Seniors Month” — our favorite rebrand of Older Americans Month — with our members at Farmington Gardens.

This year’s theme, “Champion Your Health,” celebrates staying active, engaged, connected, and living with purpose at every age — something our members exemplify every day.

Thank you to Farmington Gardens for the delicious lunch and beautiful setting, Masonicare at Middlewoods of Farmington for the sweet treats, and Town Council Chair Brian Connolly for spending the afternoon with us.

Most importantly, thank you to our incredible members for allowing us to celebrate you. Your energy, kindness, and sense of community are what make the Farmington Senior Center such a special place.

Happy Sophisticated Seniors Month!

A huge thank you to our friends at Euro-American Homecare for hosting such a fun and creative patriotic wreath workshop here at the Farmington Senior Center! Our seniors had an amazing time — we’ve been hearing nothing but glowing reviews about the afternoon.

From laughter and conversation to some seriously impressive crafting, it was such a joy to see everyone’s creativity shine. And now… we have some beautiful red, white, and blue wreaths ready to be proudly displayed for Memorial Day 🇺🇸

We’re so grateful for this wonderful partnership, and are already looking forward to the next visit!

Teamwork makes the dream work! Since Friday, our entire staff, has been hard at work, helping our most vulnerable residents. We checked on almost 200 people, secured volunteers for a few of our homebound clients, reached out to multiple family members, managed several dial a ride critical medical trips, reorganized appointments as well as jumping into help as needed.

Today and yesterday our staff along with a few volunteers and some much appreciated assistance from Farmington CT Police Department - Community Policing Unit rolled up our sleeves to help dig out all the cars at our senior housing. This storm was a doozy and needed everyone’s help!

Thank you, everyone for your assistance!
