Exciting News! Suggestions Needed!

Funds have been set aside for senior centers based on its population.
East Lyme is eligible for $58,540. These funds must be used for certain purposes or “eligible uses”. These eligible uses fall under two categories of expenditures within “Provision of Government Services.”
1. “Facility improvements”
2. “Programming”

A few suggestions are items: new flooring in the Senior Center, a coffee bar, lighter trays, a new dishwasher, washing machine/dryer, handicap bathroom doors, and new dining room chairs. We are asking for your input. Come into the senior center and look for our suggestion white board to add your thoughts.

Thank you in advance for your suggestions, we can’t use all of them, but we appreciate your input (after all, it’s your senior center).
