Hartford Senior Center

Overview

The Hartford Senior Center is a complete facility for all of the activities of senior citizens in the Hartford area. The center was a long time dream, and is now a reality, thanks to a dedicated group of seniors. The center became a reality in a large part because of a donation of approximately 2.5 acres of prime land adjacent to Rossman School by Mr. and Mrs. John Novak, members of Senior Friends, and through the fund raising effort of our membership, which raised a substantial amount of money toward the building project. The center is owned by Senior Friends, Inc. (a not-for-profit organization) and is operated by volunteers and some paid personnel. Many activities and services are offered at the center. We are a membership organization. Some events are open to the public, most are for members only. The building is approximately 10,000 square feet, constructed from decorative masonry block and wood, with provisions for future expansion. It is available to all of our seniors and other groups for various activities, such as weddings, anniversaries, Christmas, birthday or other parties.
