BoomerVenture is planning its spring programs.
"We've designed afternoon programs with teachers and self-employed workers in mind. It is great that local baby boomers with a little flexibility in their schedules are taking advantage of these late afternoon courses," said Kathy Urquhart, Andover Senior Center Director. "There is often room for the community in many of our other day-time classes and events."
Residents can look at the website www.andoverseniorcenter.org or call program organizers at 978-623-8321.
