50th Anniversary Open House, Friday, April 8, 1:00 - 4:00 PM
A small group of older volunteers met throughout the 1960’s in different locations around Stoughton to share friendship, hobbies, and advocated for a formal place for volunteer senior citizens to meet. In 1972 the City of Stoughton established the Commission on Aging committee to oversee the newly formed Senior Center located at 217 S. Division St. We celebrate 50 years of the Stoughton Area Senior Center this month! April is also Volunteer Month, which makes it even more special to remember those volunteers from so many years ago who thought older adults deserved a place of their own to enjoy. We have been fortunate in all of those 50 years since to be supported by wonderful volunteers who continue to make the Senior Center what it is today. We should also be thankful that our city government and community have supported the Senior Center for those many years, showing older adults that they are worthy of such a special place. Please join us to celebrate the Stoughton Area Senior Center’s 50th anniversary.
