anchor Description
This project provides for the design and construction of an improved building facade which includes window replacement and a new building exterior for Holiday Park Senior Center. The purpose of this project is to improve life expectancy of the facility and to support the County's 2035 goal of zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for the operation of the County facility. Holiday Park is centrally located in Montgomery County and serves as a resource facility and wellness support for many diverse and varied interest groups. Seniors that use the center find social and life enrichment activities open to all. Holiday Park is Montgomery County's largest senior center, serving more than 500 adults over the age of 55 daily. There are numerous drop-in and pre-registration programs offered, including but not limited to health and wellness lectures, travelogues, financial management counseling, and musical performances.
