Lompoc Senior's Club Endowment Fund

(Please Help Spread The Word, share on Facebook, etc..)  gf.me/u/zidzp7

We are the Lompoc Senior's Club.   We started our club so we could raise money to spend on providing entertainment for local seniors.
(I am not raising money for myself, none of the money will be used by me.)

Currently we have very little entertainment at our senior center, bridge, dominoes, pool / billiards, art painting class and one movie per month.

The Lompoc Senior's Club (50+) And Fundraiser Group Mission Statement.

We organize and finance resort type entertainment for local seniors, at the Dick Dewees Senior Center. (As of 30 Apr 2020 " 33 " events)

(the seniors club was started on 31 Mar 2017, it is almost 5 years old)

"The Lompoc Senior's Club is part of the Lompoc Valley Parks, Recreation, & Pools Foundation. It is not part of the City of Lompoc Recreation Division".

The Lompoc Senior's Club Buddy system for home alone seniors.

Hopefully, the Lompoc Senior's Club is a means for seniors to be involved, and socialize with other seniors, especially seniors that can't get out much. If you know of a senior that spends too much time alone, why not reach out to them, become their friend. Invite them to go on a car pool excursion with our club, or invite them to one of our entertainment events. Let's make the Lompoc Senior's Club one that really cares about seniors that are home alone, etc. Our Facebook group could be a great source of connectivity for seniors. Unfortunately a lot of seniors aren't on facebook. We need to reach out to other seniors and somehow help them to get onto facebook, if they are willing. Please offer to teach them how to get on facebook or get someone else to teach them.
