About Lisa Holmes

Since 1972, The Salvation Army's Golden Age Center has offered adults, ages 50 and older, with an opportunity to make new friends and participate in recreational, educational, and spiritual activities in a safe and supportive environment. As a congregate meal site, the Golden Age Center provides breakfast and hot lunches, Monday through Friday, to program members and the community. The Golden Age Center also provides numerous opportunities for members to stay active, engaged, and involved. Instructional classes, referrals, workshops, shopping, overnight trips, and recreation are but a few of the benefits of membership. Members can participate in computer and art classes, play cards and bingo, or just join their friends for lunch. This multi-purpose center provides an atmosphere that is not only mentally stimulating, but is also a critical resource that enables this under served population the opportunity to progress through healthy aging, despite financial hardships. The program offers opportunities for health and wellness including exercise classes, a fitness room, and health workshops.
