By

Membership drive
    Though our membership year now is on a calendar year, it’s not too early to “Be-New or Re-New.” Beat the rush and sign up now and you’ll get an extra two months for your yearly $20 dues.
    Membership at the Highland County Senior Center entitles you to participate in all the activities, go on exciting trips, take advantage of a broad range of services (see below for more information on services available) and purchase a delicious lunch for only $3.
    Already a member? Bring a friend when you come in to renew your membership, show them around and invite them to join.
    Also, we’d like to remind you that membership makes a thoughtful gift for a birthday or anniversary. The center is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Stop in and renew or join the Center today.
