Hello!

It's great to see your question because keeping active and engaged with life iin our communities are what keeps all healthy people "clicking on all cylinders." And Senior Centers are a great places to "click" with others!

While I don't know the answer to your specific question about whether the center in Oldbridge NJ charges a membership fee--there is a group that can provide you this --and other helpful information -- about services in this part of the Garden State.

Please call the Area Agency on Aging that serves Oldbridge. You can call toll-free 1-800-677-1116 to find the phone number and other information you'll need to make this to contact.

Area Agencies on Aging are one of the best kept secrets around for older Americans and their families who are seeking information about services for seniors, public benefits like Medicare and other age-related questions. Many Area Agencies on Aging fund nutrition and health programs at Senior Centers. There is an Area Agency on Aging serving every community of the United States. The folks there specialize in listening to the concerns adn questions from seniors and their families. If they don't know something, they know the best place to go for the answer.

The other thing to know is that Area Agencies on Aging often need volunteers for services and programs that help seniors. The Area Agency can tell you about volunteer options that might be a good fit for you--or they can link you to other groups for senior volunteers.

If you do contact the Area Agency on Aging and like the help that they give you, let your local county officials and your folks in Congress know. Or consider making a contribution to support their work. Area Agencies on Aging don't have big budgets and appropriations for the Older Americans Act, the legislation that makes this help possible, have not increased significantly for about 25 years!

Hope this helps! Best wishes and Good luck!
