The Polson Senior Community mourns the death of our longtime volunteer Harvey Kinitzer. He was a reliable asset for us in many capacities, including our transportation program. 

Trish Campbell approached a member of the Montana Repertory Dance Touring Company to lead the ladies in their regular exercise program at the center. He was a delight!  Thanks Trish and the dance company for keeping the performing arts thriving in our community.

Bowling “no-tap” is Tuesdays, 1-3 p.m. Join any time.

Activities at the Polson center, open to all, include: self-guided, video-assisted exercise, 10:30-11:30 a.m. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays (move it or lose it!); bingo at 6 p.m. Fridays, with playing card bingo on the first Wednesday of each month.
