Longstanding club invites residents to connect, socialize, and stay active
WARWICK — One of the Town’s longest-running senior groups is opening its doors to new members, inviting residents to join a tradition of friendship, activity, and community connection that has spanned nearly half a century.
The Warwick Golden Senior Citizens — commonly known as the Golden Seniors — meets every Thursday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Warwick Senior Center, located at 132 Kings Highway.
The group, which has been part of Warwick’s community fabric for decades, recently marked a major milestone, celebrating its 49th anniversary during a meeting with pizza and cake — a fitting tribute to a club built on camaraderie and shared moments.
A Tradition of Community
With roots going back almost half a century, the Golden Seniors have served as a social hub for older residents, offering a welcoming space for conversation, activities, and connection.
The club is part of a broader network of senior organizations across the Town of Warwick, all designed to help residents stay active, engaged, and connected.
Weekly Gatherings and Activities
Meetings typically include a mix of social time, refreshments, and occasional guest speakers, along with opportunities for trips, seasonal celebrations, and community programs.
Town officials and local organizations often use the gatherings as a way to connect directly with residents, share information, and introduce new services.
Open Invitation
Club members describe the Golden Seniors as a friendly, informal group where newcomers are quickly made to feel at home.
“All are invited to stop by for a visit,” organizers said in an announcement, encouraging residents to see firsthand what the group offers.
For more information or to learn about joining, interested residents can contact club president Ron Giglio at 516-852-7036.
Staying Connected
As Warwick continues to grow, groups like the Golden Seniors remain an important part of the community — providing not just activities, but a sense of belonging for residents who have helped shape the town over the years.
For many members, Thursday afternoons are less about a meeting and more about something simple but essential: staying connected — something the club has been doing for 49 years and counting.
