Lunch at the Sandy Senior Center is back!  We will be hosting lunch every Tuesday at 12:00 PM, and we would love for you to join us.  While the meal is free, there is a suggested donation of $5.00.

It’s a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a delicious meal, catch up with friends, and be part of our vibrant community once again. To help us plan accordingly, please call the center to let us know if you’ll be attending (503-668-5569). A quick call ensures we have enough meals prepared for everyone.

We also understand that transportation can be a concern for some. Limited transportation is available, but you must call the week before to request this service, as space is limited and scheduling is required in advance (suggested donation of $2.00).

We’re so happy to welcome you back and look forward to sharing meals and memories with you once again. Please don’t hesitate to call us if you have any questions.
