Thank you for your interest in the Altoona Senior Center.  The Center is full of excitement with good food, fellowship, lots of fun and activities daily. The Senior Center offers recreation, education and companionship—all geared toward you and your interests. We encourage your participation and ideas to make your Senior Center a place to call “home.”

Programs on health, finances, nutrition, music, and much more are planned throughout the week.  Please contact the Center Manager for more information or to receive a monthly activities calendar and program updates.
