Aging Department
The overall goal of the seven Senior Centers of the
Lexington County Recreation and Aging Commission is
summarized in the motto, Privileged Ones Growing
Older. Recognizing that it is a privilege to grow older, we
strive to enhance the lives of the older adults in our
population and to acknowledge and benefit from the
numerous gifts those persons have to offer through their
participation in our programs.
Our Senior Centers offer a variety of programs and
activities aimed at enhancing an older adult’s mental and
physical wellness. Anyone who wishes to participate in
our programs must be free of conditions requiring
personal care assistance or personal supervision. Older
adults are welcome to participate in the daily activities at
the Centers. Call your local Center for age requirements,
memberships, activity fees and program availability.
For additional information call 356-5111.
