GUERNSEY--Guernsey Services for Seniors is not your parents' Senior Center.  
A great place to come for  friendship as well as fellowship, the Guernsey Senior Center offers many free activities every month. Wellness Checks, Plays, Bingo, Pinochle, Line Dancing, Karaoke, Cribbage, Crafts, and Holiday Parties are just part of the fare. The Center offers trips out of town, including a monthly Cheyenne shopping trip, and pleasure trips such as the upcoming Natural Bridge. The bus is also public transportation for a small fee, within the town of Guernsey.  
Under new management, there are so many more choices. Shiela Oliver, the Transportation and Activities Director for the Center, says, "This is YOUR COMMUNITY and YOUR CENTER!? Our community would surely be lost without our great facility and we would no longer be able to provide our services. Participation and feedback would be greatly appreciated to insure longevity. Our meal options are currently evolving, our salad bar offers many delicious options, and we deliver delicious healthy meals." 

Platte County Seniors are offered an array of benefits by just filling out an A.G.N.E.S. (Aging Needs Evaluation Summary).  An example of two great benefits this year were a $25 break on the Trail Ruts Senior Golf Pass through the Town of Guernsey and a Free $25 Tri City Parks and Rec. Senior Scholarship Season Swimming Pass. 
The center is sponsoring a trip to Ayres Natural Bridge west of Douglas August 30th. The trip is no charge for anyone registered through an A.G.N.E.S. form.
Lunch is served Monday through Friday and one Wednesday evening a month.
If you're 60 years of age or older, come down and check out the Guernsey Senior Center.
You may be surprised at how much their is to do...even if you're retired!
