Here’s a sampling of the questions we are asked by people new to the Brookfield Senior Center. If your question is not answered, please contact us directly by telephone (203-775-5308) or e-mail.
Q. Who do we consider to be a senior?
A. Our programs target everyone over the age of 60. We have tried to develop and offer programs to meet the social, physical and mental needs and interests of Brookfield’s population over
60. Everyone is welcome! If there is something you think you’d like to try, give us a chance!
Q. What are the Center’s Hours?
A. Our programming is scheduled weekdays from 9:00a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
Q. How do I find out about activities and programming at the Center?
A. We produce a monthly newsletter that you can pick up at the Center. If you would prefer to have this mailed to you, please call the Center (203-775-5308) and asked to be added to our mailing list. Our calendar and newsletter is also on our website.
Q. What do I have to do to join the Brookfield Senior Center? Is there a membership fee?
A. There is no membership fee. We do ask that you complete a simple Senior Center registration form so that we have some basic information for you. To attend any of our programs, you simply drop in and sign in. Some of our activities have a minimal class fee.
Q. Do I have to be a resident of Brookfield to join?
A. No. Non-Brookfield residents are welcome to participate as long as we can accommodate any Brookfield resident wishing to participate as well. We encourage all to participate.
Q. Will I fit in? What kind of person attends Brookfield Senior Center?
A. People from a wide variety of backgrounds, income levels and experiences participate in the various daily activities we offer. We do require that anyone attending the Brookfield Senior Center and its programs do so independently or have an attendant with them. If you need additional assistance, we can help guide you to other programs that our area offers.
Q. Do you serve lunch?
A. Yes, we serve lunches Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 12:00p.m. The cost is
$2.50. You must sign up 24 hours in advance by calling the kitchen phone at
775-5237; Tuesday lunch must be reserved by Thursday the week before. Menus for the month are posted in the kitchen.
Lunch is served most Fridays and is generally pizza, sandwiches or hot dogs – keep an eye on the bulletin board the week before and be sure to sign up.
