designed to enrich the minds and bodies of seniors through social engagement, community involve- ment, and activities like bingo and chair volleyball, according to the city’s website. However, the program has since outgrown its current space at Grange Hall, located at 413 N. Main St., Reed said. By moving the Cibolo Senior Program to the Noble Group Event Center facility, seniors will have access to a full kitchen equipped with appli- ances and access to chairs and tables. Reed said the move will allow more seniors in the community to participate in the senior
program. The center will also provide additional office and storage space to the city. “By bringing them into this facility, they have a larger space, a better kitchen area, more storage and we just think it’s the right time for them to expand,” Reed told Community Impact. Next steps Cibolo City Council will select a new name for the facility and discuss rental policies and fees at a future meeting.
