Broadwater Senior Center Update

Broadwater County Senior Citizens

One of the lesser-known non-profit organizations in Broadwater County is the Broadwater County Senior Citizens.

While the organization is not well known, its mission and activities are well used! The Broadwater County Senior Citizens is the organization that runs the Broadwater County Senior Center and provides lunch meals for Seniors 60+.

The Broadwater County Senior Citizens contracts with RMDC (Rocky Mountain Development Corporation) to provide meals to seniors. The Senior Center hosts congregate meals (lunch meals provided at the Senior Center), pick-up lunch meals and also delivers meals within the city of Townsend. Meals are also prepared for the Headstart Program in Townsend.

The Broadwater Pinochle Club uses the Senior Center to host pinochle every Wednesday and Friday.

Long-time member and President of the Broadwater County Senior Citizens, Ruthie Knowles, recently passed away. A new Board has been formed, and they are recruiting new members to the organization.

Rachael Brug is the new Broadwater County Senior Citizens Board President; Amanda Renwick has assumed the Vice Presidency and Pam Sample is now Secretary/Treasurer of the Board.

Broadwater County Senior Citizens is currently recruiting volunteers who can help at the Senior Center as needed. With the passing of Ruthie Knowles, the Senior Center is short of help to get meals prepared to deliver meals.

Please consider being a volunteer for this vital county service. Contact the center at 406-266-3995 for more details.
