Folsom Parks and Recreation
Seniors First by LESLEY MILLER
The Folsom Senior Center,
sited at 48 Natoma Street,
provides a wide range of
programs and services.
Open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Monday through Friday, and 9 a.m. to
1 p.m. on the second Saturday of each
month, anyone over 55 is welcome
to visit; Folsom residency is not a
requirement.
A rotating schedule of free activities
take place in the lounge, including
games, movies, book discussions,
bridge, and a popular “Off-Key
Singers” group that meets Monday
and Friday. The lounge maintains
a stock of books, magazines, board
games, and puzzles for those who
want to engage in quiet activities.
The Folsom Senior Citizens Club
welcomes new members to its
meetings twice a month for lunch,
games, and occasional guest
speakers.
Meals on Wheels provides a hot
lunch at 11:30 a.m. Monday through
Friday (with prior reservation);
seniors can also bring a sack lunch to
enjoy the mealtime companionship
and conversation.
A variety of classes—some free and
others fee-based—are available as
well, including fine arts, ceramics,
yoga, Zumba Gold, interval training,
mobility and flexibility programs,
“Walk and Talk” guided trail walks,
driver’s safety, and guitar lessons. Free
educational workshops on topics like
Social Security planning, health care
management, caregiver assistance,
and identity theft prevention are
available throughout the year, too.
On August 24 at 11:30 a.m., a Hot
August Nights Party will feature
games, live entertainment, and light
refreshments.
