Monson Savings Bank representatives recently visited with Jen Finnigan, Wilbraham Senior Center Activities/Volunteer Coordinator, and Dee Mitchell, Friends of Wilbraham Seniors Corresponding Secretary, at the Wilbraham Senior Center for a tour of the new and improved location.

Monson Savings Bank was a Platinum Level donor to the Friends of the Wilbraham Seniors’ Capital Campaign. The local Bank contributed $25,000 to the construction of Wilbraham’s new Senior Center. The Bank’s donation specifically supported the creation of the Fitness Room.

The plaque outside the Fitness Room reads, “Generously sponsored by Monson Savings Bank ‘Working out may not bring more years to your life, but it will bring more life to your years!’ – Dan Moriarty, President and CEO.”

“The new Wilbraham Senior Center is absolutely awesome! It is wonderful that the Town of Wilbraham has this location for the community's seniors to gather and socialize, as well as receive essential services,” said Dan Moriarty, Monson Savings Bank President and CEO. “It’s a privilege for Monson Savings Bank to support a place that fosters community, connection, and care.”

The new Wilbraham Senior Center is located at 250 Springfield Street behind the town offices. The Senior Center welcomes all seniors to participate in their programs and activities which include exercise programs, health programs, cards, quilting club, trips, visits from attorneys for consulting, SHINE representatives, and more. The Senior Center also offers social services/outreach to senior citizens and their families, as well as an onsite Veterans Center.
