The Red River Council on Aging is modifying its lunch, adult daycare, and public transportation programs due to the COVIS-19 outbreak. Other activities have been cancelled.
Director Liz Cannon said, “We are continuing our feeding program, however we are only offering lunches to go. The only thing we are changing is that there will be no meals served in the Depot Diner. People will not get their meals to go.”
The Adult Daycare program will resume on Tuesday, March 17th. Cannon said, “Our clients will be picked up by our vans as usual. When they arrive at our facility they will be screened, their temperature taken, and they will be asked Health Department questions. Otherwise there will be no chance to our Adult Daycare.
Another program offered by the Council on Aging is Public Transportation. Cannon said, “It will operate as usual with the exception that everyone will use hand sanitizer and the vans and seats will be cleaned after every trip.”
And Cannon said the Senior Dance scheduled for Saturday night has been cancelled. The Council on Aging has cancelled all activities and the Jack and Laura building is closed during this time.
