YELLOW SPRINGS SENIOR CENTER

Welcome

Our Mission is to enhance the dignity and quality of life for seniors in Yellow Springs and Miami Township and to foster interaction among them with the total community.

COVID Procedures & Reopening

If you are 65 or older, you can go to the Greene County Public Health Alert website (link just below) to sign up to be notified by email when clinics are available for your phase (once you're on that website, look for the purple button).
Greene Co. Public Health Alert
If you have a vaccine appointment and need a ride:
 
Greene County Public Health has started vaccinations at the former Greene County Career Center site, 2960 W. Enon Road in Xenia. You must be signed up on the list prior to attending this clinic and have received notification to attend. The list is a running list and as vaccine doses are received, GCPH will notify the next batch of residents on the list.
 
Greene CATS is offering rides to seniors to get their vaccines and policies depend on the location.
 
  • Seniors who have appointments at the Greene County Public Health site can request a reservation up to the day before their appointment (by noon).
  • Seniors who have appointments at any other vaccine site need to request a ride at least two business days (by noon) or up to 30 days in advance.
 
Call (937) 708-8322 (option 1). Details are on their website:

More vaccine information available at the following links:
 
  • Ohio's vaccine provider locator tool: https://vaccine.coronavirus.ohio.gov/
    Note: each provider manages its own schedules and appointments.
  • Vaccine fact sheet: https://coronavirus.ohio.gov/static/vaccine/general_fact_sheet.pdf
  • Department of Health vaccine information: https://coronavirus.ohio.gov/wps/portal/gov/covid-19/covid-19-vaccination-program/welcome/covid-19-vaccination-program
  • Department of Aging vaccine information: https://aging.ohio.gov/wps/portal/gov/aging/care-and-living/coronavirus-response/covid-19-vaccine-information-for-older-adults

 All in-person activities are cancelled for the time being and we will reassess opening when the Public Health Advisory system moves the county back down to level 2. Homemaking, transportation, grocery delivery are still operational, staff are answering phone and emails, and we have several fitness and social events on-line through Zoom, Facebook, and YouTube. All of these links are located on the Calendar. You can read more about our plans to reopen and the procedures for when we do reopen the building.

Special Events

Living Your Legend
Friday, January 29, 12:30–2:00pm
Patti Dallas has changed the schedule for her Living Your Legend workshop. Instead of breaking it into two parts, the workshop will cover parts one and two in one session on January 29, at 12:30. The session, held via Zoom, will be a group conversation consisting of participants responding to prompts, and sharing events and experiences from their lives. Beginning with childhood and ending in the present, some questions posed might include:
  • What games did you play as a child?
  • What was school like for you?
  • What do you remember from your teen years? 
  • What jobs did you have through your life? 
  • What events / people through your life have been influential?
To register, send an email to info@ysseniors.org  or call (937) 767-5751. If you need assistance in setting up Zoom on a computer, let us know when you register.
