SENIOR CITIZEN RECREATION

The village provides bus trips for its senior citizens.   A senior advisory committee, which meets once a month, helps pick out the one-day trips.  Advertisements in the local paper for the various trips provide information and the opportunity for the seniors to sign up for these trips.    The village tries to schedule a variety of trip destinations for the varied tastes among its seniors.
