POLSON - The Polson Senior Center’s annual membership campaign is underway. We are exceeding expectations and are looking at a record year again with $15 dues expiring August 2025.
An Office Manager position is available. Involves basic data entry and bookkeeping, secretarial and management, skills, scheduling, etc. Wage DOE.
We need sheet 18 x 24 pans of food service quality. If any are in your garage, we could use them here.
Sign up at the center for computer/cell phone literacy classes. Bring your grandparents. Welcome to the 21st century.
Sees Candy is here at the center. Due to increases in production costs, prices have taken a substantial increase. Prices are posted at the center. The price will be below retail (below on-line + shipping costs). Last year we made $200. We offer this as a service to our seniors. Sees Candy makes great gifts.
