You may pre-order your cinnamon rolls during the week of the Rummage Sale and pick them up Saturday morning. Some cinnamon rolls will be available for sale on the first. Pre-orders will be greatly appreciated. You will be entering the building on the west side in the alley way. Masks will be required. Social distancing will be expected.

Reopening: The reopening plan is shaping up. Hopefully we will be open somewhere between May 19 and June 1. As you know, a lot of things will have to change. We hope to have the finalized plan done soon and will relay the information to you. We will be continuing the grab and go meals for those unable to eat at the Center.

Transportation: The Senior Center is providing Medical Transportation Only. Remember to call ahead for Friday’s appointments. Monday and Thursday rides have to be worked around grocery delivery.

Congregate meals: We are still continuing to provide meals at the Hill County Senior Center as “grab-and-go meals” while we are still closed. If you would like to pick up a meal, please be sure to call the fenter before 10 a.m. to order your meal through the kitchen. Your meals may be picked up at the center from 11:45 a.m. until 12:15 p.m. Monday through Friday. You may order a meal for one day or put in your order for the entire week, whatever is more convenient.
