The Friday Five

Welcome to The Friday Five

Happy Independence Day Weekend!

All SCS offices were closed today, Friday, July 3rd, in observance of the Independence Day holiday. Regular operations will resume on Monday July 6.

This week we're sharing heat safety resources from the Delaware County Health Department, recapping yesterday's REMarket event at Friendship Circle, looking forward to tech support at Chester, and making sure you remember to drop by the 2026 Art Show opening reception next week. PLUS, your July Senior Center Calendars are here!

We wish everyone a safe, happy, and healthy Fourth of July!

Heat Safety: Stay Cool, Stay Safe!

It's important to take the dangers of this heat wave seriously. We're thankful for these resources we found through Delaware County's Health Department website. Access to cooling locations will be limited today and tomorrow - so we hope that this information can help you or someone in need!

Get Your Tech Questions Answered at Chester Senior Center

Need help with your smartphone, tablet, laptop, or another device? Matthew Cieri will be at Chester Senior Center ready to help! Bring your questions and your device. Appointments are limited, so be sure to call the center to reserve your spot.

Check Out Photos from Friendship Circle's REMarket Event

Thank you to everyone who joined us yesterday at Friendship Circle's ReMarket event! Visitors enjoyed free water ice, games, local vendors, community resources, and plenty of patriotic fun as we celebrated America's 250th. Check out some of our favorite photos from a wonderful afternoon spent connecting with friends, neighbors, and local organizations.

"Mattie Who Cares" Medicare Help from PA MEDI

Simply call 484-494-3765 or email delcopamedi@scs-delco.org, and a knowledgeable counselor will reach out to provide free, unbiased Medicare guidance. When it comes to Medicare, Mattie really does care!

Art Show Opening Reception is Next Week!
