We’ve had a busy few weeks at the Collins Senior Center!

Our seniors enjoyed Bingo with Brookdale Senior Living, another fun round of Bingo with Texas Health & Human Services and Texas STAR+PLUS, and a Lunch & Learn with Texarkana Funeral Homes.

A big thank you to each of these community partners for taking the time to visit with our seniors and help make these activities possible. We appreciate your continued support of the Collins Senior Center and our community!

💖 Thank You, Greta! 💖

For the past year and a half, Greta Sexton has poured so much time, energy, and heart into teaching our free community Barre and POUND classes!

What started small quickly became something so much bigger. These classes became a part of our weekly routines, a place where we built friendships, found accountability, got stronger, laughed at ourselves, and cheered each other on. 💪😊

Greta, thank you for creating a space where women could come together, move our bodies, challenge ourselves, and most importantly, have FUN! You have made such a positive impact on so many of us, and we are incredibly grateful for every class, every encouragement, and every laugh along the way.

Some ladies joined us for a season, while others have been there from day one, but every person has been a special part of this fitness journey. 💕

Thank you, Greta, for showing up for us week after week and sharing your passion with our community. We are stronger because of you and we'll miss you tremendously! 🥹

Thank you for an amazing year and a half! We appreciate you more than you know! 🫶

We had a great time at our National Senior Day Outing at the Southwest Center, and when the winners started rolling in, so did the confetti! 🎊
