Northshore Senior Center

10201 E Riverside Drive
Bothell WA 98011

Phone: 425-487-2441

Northshore Senior Center is committed to serving the full spectrum of seniors, from the healthy, active senior who wants to use a lifetime of skills and experience to make a difference in our community through volunteering to the frail elder who requires assistance meeting the needs of daily life.

Mission: Northshore Senior Center promotes healthy aging and well-being in our community through programs, services, resources, and civic engagement.

Vision: We envision a community where everyone leads full, healthy, and inspired lives.

Fitness: You can change how you think, feel and act when you are older simply by changing how you think, feel and act now, geriatrics experts say. Staying healthy, fit and active are the keys to successful aging. Physical exercise has been proven to discourage declines in health and fitness. Join the growing number of seniors who are actively demonstrating that exercise helps keep a body strong and on the go.

Visit our website to see all of the great exercise classes we offer along with our new Fitness Center providing cardiovascular and strength-training equipment specifically geared toward seniors, but also great for people of all ages!

We offer low-cost, high quality health and wellness activities, share many tasty homemade meals, educate and inspire through classes and trips. Our more frail and elderly are served through our structured day program, which often diverts them from entering nursing homes and allows their family to continue caring for them in their own homes. A not-for-profit, Sno-Valley Senior Center relies on a veritable army of 250 plus volunteers contributing over 22,000 hours to serve one quarter of adults over 50 in the lower Snoqualmie Valley.
