Susan Shaw, Goodliving Senior Ctr. director

Welcome to the Good Living Senior Center!

Our name is new, but the center-- formerly known as the “ St. Johnsbury Senior Center”-- was established in the town over thirty years ago. Our new name speaks to the heart of our purpose: good living. The center is a gathering place for people over 55 years of age who already know a lot about good living from years of experience. Here they can also participate in stimulating and fun activities so that their lives can continue to be engaged, creative and joyful.

At Good Living you can spend time with friends, share what you know and learn something new, join a book club, see a movie, take a fitness class, play games (from bingo to bridge!), attend a lecture, go on a day trip, join in holiday celebrations and special events, and more.

The Good Living Senior Center is located in the elegantly restored St. Johnsbury House on Main Street, close to the St. Johnsbury Athenaeum and Fairbanks Museum. Many of you may have wined and dined here years ago when it was a grand hotel. The Senior Center is open Monday through Thursday, with office hours between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. The St. Johnsbury Senior Meal Site, our “sister” organization, also has its home at the St. Johnsbury House, serving delicious hot lunches every weekday. All area seniors are welcome to come for an activity and a nutritious meal and get a flavor of the good living that goes on here!
