Starting on Monday, June 29, the Great Bend Senior Center at 2005 Kansas Ave. will be open and resume its regular hours of 5 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Lunch and other activities will resume with more sanitation and social distancing in place, Director Brenda Lebbin said.

Those wanting to eat lunch should let the staff know in advance if they want carry-out meals or plan to dine in. The carry-out meals will be handed out in the Suchy parking lot on the north side of the building. Come in the north drive for pickup and exit out the south.

The Senior Center will serve coffee and doughnuts Tuesday morning, June 30, at 8 a.m.

The buses are running and can pick up seniors to come have lunch at the Senior Center or to pick up a carry-out meal.

Rules for Senior Center

• Respect each other’s space.

• There will be no salt or pepper on tables. Diners will be given plastic utensils and salt and pepper packets.
