We have a wonderful community center for the elderly in our neighborhood. It isn't a neighborhood facility. It just happens to be right up the street. The center is a service provided by our county. They have a gym, pool table, card playing room, activity room among many other rooms where they hold educational and recreational activities. This is something that would definitely appeal to me in my older years. I beleive community is so important to our vitality.

Do your parents attend anything like this in their community? I'd love to get my dad to go. He continues to lose loved ones and his circle of good friends is getting smaller with each passing year. I think it would be good for him.
