UPDATES!!!!

Even though the Governor’s order for senior centers to remain closed is still in effect, our local health department gave the approval for 50 North to     re-open the Fitness and Wellness Center on Monday, June 29, 2020 and "limited" Group Exercise Classes on July 13, 2020, by appointment only. 

Please click on the button below to read the guidelines required by the state health department.                                                                                                      However, because the Governor has not lifted the closing of Senior Centers yet, the rest of the building will remain closed.
