MUSIC, MUSIC, MUSIC!!

We are trying to establish two music days every month in the upcoming 2019 event calendar. Although we know this will be a wonderful addition, it will take additional money to achieve.

There are monies from memorials which have been designated to music, however, we need a bit more. If you would like to see our Senior Center provide two music days per month, we ask you to consider donating to the Friends of Verona Senior Center.

You can pick up a form at the front desk and one of our volunteers will assist you. Thank you for any assistance you can give us.

Donor Recognition Display Box

In honor of our generous donors, we will again be adding names to the Donor Recognition Display Box located in the Serenity Garden.

All donations and requests should be directed to Friends of Verona Senior Center.

Delayed Opening at the Senior Center

For those people who are getting rides from Transit Solutions or RSVP, or are getting home delivered meals, please remember that your walkways must be kept clear and salted or the drivers will not be able to stop.
