Dear Chugiak Senior Center Members and Friends,


Happy February! We’re delighted to welcome you into a new month here at the Chugiak Senior Center. As winter continues outside, we hope you’ll find plenty of warmth, friendship, and cheer inside our center.


February is the month of Valentine’s Day—a perfect reminder to celebrate kindness, connection, and the special bonds we share. Whether it’s a smile across the table, a friendly game, or time spent catching up with friends, we’re grateful for the sense of community that makes our center feel like home.


This month, we have a variety of activities and gatherings planned to keep us engaged and connected, including opportunities to celebrate the spirit of Valentine’s Day together. We invite you to join in, bring a friend, and enjoy all the fun and fellowship February has to offer.


Thank you for being such an important part of the Chugiak Senior Center family. We truly appreciate each and every one of you and look forward to sharing a heartfelt February together.



With warm wishes,

The Chugiak Senior Center Team
