Elizabeth Poole, director of the Senior Center at Langston-Brown Community Center, is writing the day’s activities on the board outside the center. She says every day includes a hot lunch, as well as activities, sometimes special speakers and field trips. She says the seniors sometimes suggest new classes such as “yarn creation” that began with 3-4 people and has grown to 6-9 attendees. Another popular activity is the choral group of 50-60 who meets weekly and performs winter and spring concerts.
