About The Goldendale Senior Center

Over the decades The Goldendale Senior Center has provided many services to its members and seniors in the Goldendale environs. People rented the main hall for weddings, family reunions, civic gatherings and musical events. The game room had card players on regularly scheduled Wednesdays, as well as bingo, birthday parties, meetings of various interest groups, a green room for visiting performers playing in the hall and a space to work on a good puzzle once in awhile

About Our Mission

Our mission is still pretty much the same as all along. Since its inception the GSC has been fulfilling its mission to provide clean, healthy spaces for seniors to gather to socialize or engage in pastimes and other entertainments to enjoy.

Outside of its mission to provide a place, the GSC volunteers have always had a heavy commitment to social networking through managed activities that encouraged various interest groups among our membership to explore their shared interests from pastimes to crafts to educational projects and more.

All these years people have talked about crops and the weather, traded news and gossip, posited speculations, swapped recipes, and exchanged tips on fixing all kinds of machinery. A myriad of data exchanges from trivial to extremely important happening trough a bit of socializing here and there at the center over the decades.

It has also been part of our mission to help provide opportunities for volunteers, not only at the center, but also in our city and county, through the networking opportunities volunteering anywhere can bring about.

Our little book nook is always stocked with a variety categories, comfy couches along with a take one add one section and another section full of volumes that are please-take-me-home free. It is our humble way to help actualize our mission to encourage continuing education in the lives of our members as well as provide the entertainment good books can give. Plus, books never need a re-charge.
