The Huntsville Madison County Senior Center held a fundraising event to support programs for seniors on August 6 at The Royal at Stovehouse. The event was the first casino night, though the organization has held a dinner and auction event called Hot Southern Nights since 2014.
With more than 200 in attendance, a special guest was Presenting Sponsor Stephanie Kirk, “Your Medicare Lady.” Fare was provided by Catering by Narvell with flowers and décor arranged by volunteers and staff. Casino games and machines were by Bama Casino. Sponsors included Cigna; Keel Point; the Becky Hall Network; and many other community partners.
“Senior centers serve as a gateway - connecting older adults to vital community services that can help them stay healthy and independent,” said Associate Director Kathryn Kestner. “For almost 50 years, Huntsville-Madison County Senior Center has been a focal point where those age 60 and better enjoy free services and activities which enhance dignity, support independence and wellness, and encourage community involvement. We are very grateful for the strong support from the community and especially for our first casino event!” n
