The Friday Five


June 19, 2026

Welcome to The Friday Five

A creative start to the summer, upcoming trips, trivia, and bingo in today's newsletter

In observance of Juneteenth, all SCS senior centers and offices were closed on Friday, June 19. We honor this important day of reflection, remembrance, and celebration of freedom. Regular operations will resume on Monday, June 22.


As summer gets underway, we're excited about the tons of activities across SCS. One event we're especially looking forward to is our 2026 Art Show! This is a beloved tradition that showcases the remarkable talents of older adult artists throughout our senior centers. Feeling inspired? Consider joining one of Friendship Circle's summer art classes and start creating your masterpiece for next year's show! You'll also find music trivia at Schoolhouse Center, plenty of bingo excitement at Good Neighbor Senior Center, and some fantastic upcoming trips with Chester Senior Center.


Read on for all the details, and have a wonderful weekend!
