Senior center: Expansion considered

izing and interacting with
other people. Otherwise, they
can become isolated in their
homes. Many are single, or
widows, with limited contact
with others.”
The city has no current
plans to expand the commu-
nity center, said April Clark,
Warrenton’s finance direc-
tor. “Funding would have to
come from somewhere else.”
The task force toured As-
toria’s senior center, which
is open six days a week and
brimming with classes in line
dancing, exercise and yoga,
plus activities such as mov-
ies, bridge, mahjong, bingo,
creative writing, crocheting
and shopping trips. There are
computers, pool tables and
reading nooks.
“If it ever came to fruition,
it would pale in comparison
to what they have in Asto-
ria,” Mellison said. “It’s way
beyond what we’re envision-
ing. … They told us 15 to 20
percent of members come
from Warrenton already. I’m
very uncertain in my mind if
we could compete with them,
No. 1, and if we want to.”
The task force plans to
study both the feasibility and
the need. Then it would seek
funding, perhaps a Com-
munity Development Block
Grant, a federal program that
combats blight and supports
affordable housing, public
infrastructure, seniors and
those who are poor or dis-
abled.
“That’s how we got the
community center and Head
Start building,” Gramson
said. “Our meals program
has been very successful. It’s
one of the very few in the
state that’s self-supporting.”
Warrenton Senior Citizens
Inc. has money in an ac-
count from a participant who
left a legacy endowment to
the organization. The fund
of $30,000 has grown to
$38,000.
