Welcome to the Chelsea Senior Center

News to Note
The Senior Center is closed. Please see below for additional information.
1. Reopening the Chelsea Senior Center for programs and activities:
- As many of you are aware, restrictions are starting to be lifted in Michigan. While we very much look forward to welcoming you back as soon as we can, we have to be sure the environment here is safe for all. You should have received a mini June newsletter in the mail with an overview of some of the steps we anticipate taking to ensure your safety here when we do reopen. In a few weeks we will be mailing out another piece with more specifics and we hope to share then more details of when we anticipate reopening the doors. Please know though that we will start with a “soft” reopening where not all activities will resume immediately but we will ramp-up the activities as we safely can. Beyond the safety concerns, the two main parking lots here are about to have major reconstruction work as a result of the school district’s bond. This means that we do not anticipate the parking lots being available until early to mid-August so for now that is the time period we are focusing on for the reopening. We’ll all get there together!
2. The Chelsea Senior Center offices are open with limited staff Monday-Thursday, from 9 am to 3 pm, and closed Fridays through July 3. Please contact us via phone or e-mail for needed services. The building is closed to visitors.
3. Chelsea EXPO is cancelled for 2020. Pencil in April 10, 2021!
4. Please know that we are delivering meals on wheels Mondays and Thursdays each week.
5. Check out the Helpful Resources tab for our exercise video and other fun activities.
