Have frequent flier miles you can't use
and are willing to donate to the Center? Executive Director Peter Thompson is flying to Boston in October to attend the
National Institute of Senior Centers semi-annual meeting and to speak at the
Massachusetts Association of Senior Centers annual conference. As our budget doesn't have funds for this trip, your help will allow
him to attend and learn more best practices from national
senior center leaders. If you can help, please contact Peter at 974-7756 or peter@seniorcenteirnc.org.
Thanks!
