March 16, 2020 at 8:00 PM, Governor Tom Wolf closed down all “non-essential” stores, recreational centers, including senior centers and their day programs. Senior Centers were considered “essential” as far as serving Congregate and Home Delivered Meals to our participants, so we remained opened for these services and expanded our activities to include outdoor events as the year went on. Nobody ever thought this global pandemic would go on an entire year!
As much as COVID-19 has been horrible with people getting the virus, dying from the virus, not being able to be with your friends and family, the loneliness and isolation many people felt, White Rose Senior Center (as well as many senior centers) tried our best to stay connected and have fun with our members!
The staff at White Rose Senior Center put together a video entitled “Recap 2020 WRSC” of many of the happenings of March 17, 2020 through March 17, 2021 to commemorate this life changing year. Click HERE to see the White Rose Senior Center You Tube video.
Thanks for the memories and laughter we shared! Remember, we are all in this together!
