Covid-19 Precautions
Our Covid-19 precautions need to change as the governor's guidelines change. Please be mindful of group size and room capacity for activities.
When you enter the building you will be asked to sign the self- assessment health check-in that indicates that you do not have any Covid-19 symptoms, you have not tested positive or know that you have been exposed to someone who has tested positive for the virus in the last 14 days. Please refrain from coming to the Center if these conditions are not met. You must also sign out of the building for contact tracing purposes.
For the foreseeable future, those who are not vaccinated will be required to wear a mask at all times within the building and to maintain a safe 6 foot distance between one another.
Free Table
The free table is back in operation. Please only bring a few books or puzzles in at a time. If you have a large number of books to donate, please consider bringing them to the main branch of the county library for donation.
Van Transportation
For senior residents of Glenville and Scotia only. Senior Center membership not required.
Our van must stay within Glenville/Scotia.
On-request pickup and delivery
Call 518-374-0734 M-F between 9 am and noon at least a day ahead (up to two weeks ahead)
to reserve space and schedule a ride to take you on your errands: to the barber or hairdresser,
Wal-Mart, grocery store, bank, etc. within the town.
The van operates Wednesday through Friday, 9am to 3pm.
Donations are gratefully accepted to help defray costs.
The center cannot offer transportation to medical appointments, but Catholic Charities may be able to, with ample advance notice.
Please be mindful of your fellow van riders and be prompt for your pickup times.
Medical Transportation
Catholic Charities Senior & Caregiver Support Services offer transportation to medical appointments for Schenectady County seniors aged 60 and older who are not on Medicaid. Our door to door service is also able to transport wheelchair clients. Our donation only program suggests $4.00 for ambulatory services; $6.00 for wheelchair services.
A brief phone registration is required.
Complete program information will be shared at that time. Please call (518) 357-9801,
8-4, M-F
Display Case
Be sure to check out the display case in the library to see some unique collections.
On display now:
Women in History Dolls
in celebration of Women's Suffrage
Donated by Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake Women's Club.
Dolls were made by Jane Coffey.
We are always in need of collections. If you would like to display your collection, please contact Janet Neary at 518-393-0331 or leave a message at the front desk. Remember, the case is lighted and always locked. Thank you to Janet.
Tax Preparation Assistance
Thank you to H & R Block, Mohawk Honda and Mohawk Chevrolet for helping our seniors. Of course, thank you to Supervisor Chris Koetzle for making this program a reality. The first recipients of tax preparation assistance will be Glenville seniors who qualify for certain property tax exemptions. You must contact the senior center to determine eligibility for an appointment.
If you wish to receive emails from The Center, please send your full name and email address to SeniorBaabs@gmail.com
And Things Are Even Better!
On Friday, September 18th, 2020, we celebrated the long-awaited opening of the new addition to the Glenville Senior Center. The new space includes a dedicated office for senior volunteers, a new classroom for increased programming and a recreation room complete with pool table, shuffle board table and large screen television.
While the coronavirus has curtailed some of our activities at the present, this new space will allow for a wider array of activities to be provided in the future.
Check us out!
