The Senior Citizens of Long Hill Township have been active since 1971.
We now have over 200 members.
The Senior Citizen's Club is independent of the Township, and
elects its own Executive Committee. Executive Committee members serve 2 year terms. Member dues are $15.00 per year. Membership is open to anyone 55 years of age and older. MEMBERS are needed.

| New Senior Center on Valley Road, Gillette. Valley Road is in the foreground. The entrance faces Gillette School. |

We have finished construction of a Senior Citizens Center in Gillette after 7 years of planning. The Center has 5700 square feet, and does include a kitchen and meeting facilities to accommodate 313 people in auditorium seating or 146 people seated at tables. To schedule the Senior Center for your event call the Senior Center office at 908-626-1101.
The Center was built with money raised by the members, private donations, and grants from the Long Hill Township, Morris County and private foundations.
Morris County is running a Senior Nutrition Program here twice a week (Monday and Friday at 11:45 PM).
