The Visalia Senior Center is ready to kick-off spring with its annual Spring BBQ and Open House event, scheduled for Wednesday, April 10 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The event will take place at the Visalia Senior Center, 310 N. Locust St. and feature plenty of information, programs, activities and entertainment for active adults.

The Spring BBQ and Open House is designed to bring local businesses and providers of programs and services for the senior population together to one convenient location.

"Our goal is to connect seniors, families and caregivers with the community resources available to them," said Jeannie Greenwood, City of Visalia Parks & Recreation director.

Completely free for guests of all ages, the event will feature over 40 local vendors. Each vendor has been selected as an agency, program or business that offers vital resources for the senior community.

Admission to the event is free. Attendees are encouraged to stay and enjoy the BBQ lunch, which costs $5 per person. Lunch tickets are available at the Visalia Senior Center.

In addition to the vendors and the barbeque lunch, guests will enjoy live music and dance, as well as class demonstrations from programs offered at the Visalia Senior Center.

"Our open house is a chance for regular visitors and new faces alike, to get a glimpse of all the wonderful opportunities available to local seniors," added Greenwood. "With all that we offer, from yoga and computer classes, to daily lunch and activities, we're really a one-stop spot for the 50+ community in Visalia."
