Five picnic tables and various chairs encourage relaxation or conversation. The nearby yard is host to a football target to test your throwing accuracy, horseshoe pits and spin-casting targets. Outer Banks Senior Games contenders practice discus and shot put as well as archery using bales of hay for targets. The recreation room comes alive as competitors play a leisurely game of billiards, table tennis or shuffleboard. Coffee is available in the kitchenette just off the recreation room, and cups are in the cabinet.
Donations are welcome.
Feel free to bring your lunch and store it in the refrigerator or heat it in the microwave. Off the rec room is a craft room complete with two sinks, projector, storage space, seven tables with four chairs each, and a sewing machine. Check the center's newsletter, Senior Soundings , for craft courses and special activities that take place in this room. The newsletter comes out by the 15th of the month and is available at both county senior centers and the three public libraries. The center has an information and referral room where you can sign up for programs on preparing healthful food, bird watching, growing perennials, and acrylic painting.
