The Center Goes Scent-Free

In an effort to provide a healthier Senior Center for all, we are asking everyone - including staff, volunteers, and visitors - to wear only unscented personal products within the Center building.

Products such as perfumes, colognes, after shaves, fabric softeners, scented deodorants, lotions, and hair sprays can cause serious health problems for some people, especially those with environmental illnesses, asthma, allergies, migraines, and chemical sensitives. We appreciate your cooperation with these new guidelines, which expand the scent-free area from the Fitness Department to the entire Center.
