Sarah & Jillian give us the highlights on the happenings at the Senior Center in June 2025 (audio)

FM #1464 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 1464 in the series. 


This session shares my conversation with Sarah Amaral, Senior Center Director and Jillian Rochat, Administrative Assistant, both with the Franklin Senior Center. We had our discussion in the Franklin Radio Studio on Wednesday, May 28, 2025.

 

We talk about 

  • All the key event highlights for June

  • Senior Olympics

  • Introduction of myactivecenter.com/  for online Senior Center registration

  • Teasers for July & vans trips in the future 


The show notes include links to the Senior Center page, the calendar of events, and to subscribe to the monthly newsletter. 


The recording runs about 43 minutes, so let’s listen in.

Why are there multiple calendars?
Respectfully, the Library and Senior Center calendars are too full of events to include all their events so we tend to focus on the major events. Town and School meetings are also kept separate. Links for all the calendars are shared here:
