Gramatan Village makes it easier for our members to age in place by connecting them to social opportunities, helpful services and educational programs. But who makes it possible? Volunteers!
Gramatan Village is experiencing a growing demand for volunteer drivers who can offer our members rides to and from local errands and appointments. Most rides take less than hour. Our volunteer drivers make a difference!

A number of community organizations will have informational tables on Pondfield Road, and many local businesses will offer "Silver" discounts and specials for seniors.
At 2:30 PM, the Bronxville Library will welcome the public to the opening reception of the Speeders Art Show featuring the work of artists over 55 years of age. (See below for information regarding the show.)
Salute to Seniors is a great way to learn about community resources and services that support older residents, and is especially valuable for those who may be new to the area or concerned about an aging parent or friend.
We hope to see you there!
