Building the Future: A New Home for the Solvang Senior Center

The Solvang Senior Center has long been a cornerstone for older adults in the Santa Ynez Valley, offering programs, resources, and a welcoming space for connection. As our community grows and the needs of our seniors evolve, so too must our Center…

 

Expanding to Serve the Growing Needs of Our Community


Why a New Center?

With the number of residents aged 55 and older increasing, demand for our services has outpaced our current facility's capacity. We've reached a point where additional classes and activities are needed, but space constraints limit our offerings. Recognizing this, we've embarked on a Capital Campaign to build a larger, modern, and flexible Center—right on our existing site.


What Will the New Center Offer?

The new facility will nearly double our current space, allowing us to:

  • Serve twice as many seniors.

  • Provide multiple activity rooms for concurrent sessions.

  • Offer a flexible great room that can be divided to meet various needs.

  • Increase nutrition and health programs.

  • Enhance health and wellness outcomes for our members.

  • Add new programs and classes.

  • Provide much-needed community meeting space.


How You Can Get Involved

Our vision for the new Center is rooted in community support. Here's how you can help:

  • Become a Member: For $60 annually, members enjoy access to most daily and weekly activities at no extra charge.

  • Volunteer: Share your time and skills to make a meaningful impact in the lives of local seniors.

  • Donate: Every contribution, big or small, brings us closer to realizing our dream of a new Center.
