DIRECTORY

The Winchester Seniors Association is a not-for-profit volunteer corporation of, by, and for people 55 years and older. We improve the quality of seniors' lives through participation in providing and enjoying a wide range of stimulating social, educational, and recreational activities. We operate the private not-for-profit Jenks Center for the benefit of the citizens, community organizations, and Town of Winchester.

The Winchester Seniors Association (WSA) welcomes as members all Winchester residents 55 and older, as well as non-residents who once lived in Winchester for five or more years. An elected Board of Directors governs WSA, Inc., determining policies, raising funds, setting long range goals and objectives, and overseeing the operation and maintenance of the building and grounds.

With the guidance of its Board and the support of its members, the Winchester Seniors Association intends, by 2005, to be recognized as a financially self-supporting model for responsive community service for seniors, cooperatively serving a diverse clientele of Winchester seniors, who are fully represented in the leadership of the organization.
