Williamston Area Senior Center

It's time to update your vision of the WASC, it’s not what it used to be! It’s become a vibrant,
action-packed combination of dining, special events, and daily activities that make it a fun place to be.

The WASC goes beyond card games and bingo! We have expanded our programs to include:
crafts, live entertainment, travel, fitness, education, and special events.

Join the WASC, become a member and/or volunteer and make new friends.

Come as guests, stay as friends!

About Us

Everyone ages. It is an inherent property of life. The Williamston Area Senior Center is not a senior living facility, we are a senior activity center where we offer programs and services to better the physical, mental, and emotional health of seniors through exercise classes, educational seminars, support groups, nutritional programs, social groups/clubs, special events, and more!

More Information

Socialization

Our hearts and brains are constantly changing, and just like the muscles in our body, they can lose strength if we don’t exercise them enough. It is especially important for seniors to stay physically and mentally active on a daily basis, which is why we offer a variety of activities, classes and events to help get your body and mind moving. They’re fun and enjoyable for everyone, and a great way to meet our members.
