Let's take a look at some of our wonderful neighbors.
The city of Kent has some wonderful programs for the baby boomers. Check out a program called Kent 50+
According to national demographers, nearly 76 million baby boomers (born between '46 and '64) are expected to turn 50 in the next 20 years. For various reasons, most will never consider themselves "seniors" nor explore programs and services offered at a senior center. Thus, many may miss out on needed physical and social services. Combined with dwindling federal, state and local human services, this mis-connection could further erode the quality of life for millions of older Americans.
After nearly 13 years in transition, Kent 50+ is the new name of the marketing focus developed by the City of Kent Parks, Recreation & Community Services Senior Activity Center. The Kent Senior Activity Center is NOT changing its name or programs. It is merely adding an identity to a new marketing focus for ongoing programs that will allow its transition for tomorrow's seniors.
Kent 50+ is the City of Kent's effort to bridge the marketing gap created by the average boomer's aversion to the word "senior". Its goal is simple: Connect boomers with today's senior center by projecting an active lifestyle image, relevant social and educational options and inspiring volunteer opportunities. This includes:
Ongoing adventure activities and multigenerational special events will be sponsored by the Kent + Program in addition to the Kent Senior Activity Center.
Corporate co-sponsors may help with production of promotional materials in exchange for inclusion of company logos or advertising on materials.
Seniors may have more success when inviting their boomer offspring to participate in a Kent 50+ program hosted at our senior center, but NOT labeled a "senior" event.
While the efforts may be subtle, the benefits will be far reaching:
Younger volunteers will be ready when progressing volunteers move on.
Individuals and companies exploring involvement will be better able to identify with this new focus.
The more younger people visit and participate, the more inclined they will be to use services when needed or co-sponsor activities if/when they're able.
The Kent 50+ program combines the City of Kent and the Kent Parks, Recreation & Community Services Dept. mission statements: Dedicated to Enriching Lives by Connecting for Success! The main goal is to connect the senior center and the community with ways to define and find success. . .
through establishing relationships, enhancing significance, preserving dignity, and making a positive impact in our community, our nation, and our world.
