Senior Center Growth & Development Committee Meeting

Yesterday evening was our regularly scheduled Senior Center Growth & Development Committee (SCGDC) meeting. We were pleased to have Lou Mirviss and Danny Wan join us. Lou is an expert in marketing and sponsorships and Danny has experience and is still serving on a senior center board of directors in Oakland.

One major thrust of this meeting was to start promoting the eWaste Collection Event which will be held on April 9 in the Vineyard Town Center parking lot. You can find details on our website. Promotion will be done at retail merchants, on MHAT Channel 19, residential door-to-door and at the Centennial Recreation Center.

Another major area is building the endowment through planned giving. Senior Center Director, Susan Fent, will be setting up partnerships with local professionals to help spread the knowledge about our endowment which will help sustain the Centennial Recreation Senior Center in years to come.

The committee has begun the planning process for a major fund raising event in the fall. We need more volunteer committee members to help bring this event to fruition. If you are interested in helping plan and execute a major fund raising event, please email us.

Our next regularly scheduled meeting is on Tuesday, April 19th, 5:15pm until 6:45pm at the Centennial Recreation Senior Center.
