Letter to the Editor: Thanks Due for Continued Senior Center Support

On behalf of the Board of the Oswegoland Seniors inc. I would like to thank Brian LeClercq , President and Tony Giles, Jeff Lawson, Terry Michels, Dave Schlaker, Judy Sollinger and Scott Volpe, Village Trustees for the support they have given the Oswego Senior Center.

This year’s grant of $35,000 shows they understand the many programs and the large number of seniors living in the village that we are currently serving. From the discussions we had with many of the board members we understand how hard it was for them to reach this decision in these tough economic times and we appreciate their support.

The village of Oswego is our first stake holder. The idea and planning for the center came out of the Village of Oswego Senior Commission meetings and with the help of the village staff we were able to develop the senior center. 

The senior center is blessed to have additional support from the Kendall County Board, The Oswego Township board and The Northeastern Illinois Area Agency on Aging. Our goal is to try and serve as many seniors as possible in Kendall County and with the financial help of these agencies we hope to reach our goal.

With the help of our village president and trustees hopefully the Oswego Senior Center will be here for many years to serve the large number of seniors living in our village.

Jim Feeley, President, Oswegoland Seniors Inc.
