| Asheville Parks & Rec Considering Renaming Downtown Senior Opportunity Center |
| Senior Opportunity Community Center remains a focal point for active older adults to connect with vital services that help them stay healthy and independent, but offers much more to the community in general including social, cultural, and recreational activities; education and arts programs; health, exercise, and wellness opportunities; meals and nutrition services; volunteer, advocacy, and civic engagement information and special events.
Following discussions and submissions from those who already use the center, a location-based name – such as Downtown Asheville Community Center or Grove Street Community Center – appears to be the preference. From May 9-22, Asheville residents are invited to offer input online about the future name and share any special memories, connections, or photos of the center by emailing Chris Bubenik. |
