Benton County Senior Center

About Benton County Senior Center

The Benton County Senior Center serves senior citizens age 60 and older. We have an exercise room with five toning machines, exercise bikes, a treadmill, an ab lounger and coming soon a new upper body workout machine. We have a Nintendo Wii that offers a great source of exercises while game playing. We hope to soon add Wii Fit. We have a hand made, solid oak pool table for all the pool sharks out there (age 60 and over). The pool room is open daily from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m. We always have tables set up for card games daily. Every third Wednesday is card/game playing day from 9 a.m. until 12 noon. We have many games to choose from but everyone is encouraged to bring their own games as well. Weekly events include: Tuesday evening from 5 p.m. until 7 p.m. we have a live band (our seniors) playing and singing classic country music while others sit around and play dominos and cards. Everyone brings a snack food to share. Thursday mornings at 10:30 a.m. we have gospel singing. Any one who wants to lead a song may or just sing along congregational style. At 11:30 everyone comes into the dining room to enjoy a delicious pot luck lunch. We have the greatest cooks in Benton County bringing wonderful dishes each week! AARP meets here every third Wednesday of the month at 1:30 p.m. We have a salad or soup supper (depending on the season) every fifth Tuesday night at 5 p.m. followed by the usual singing and game playing. Events will be posted on this site for everyone to be able to see what is going on.
