Dodie Brockamp party now set for Feb. 17

The party to honor retiring Silverton Senior Center Executive Director Dodie Brockamp was rescheduled because of the water damage the building suffered during the recent ice storm.

Now the party, honoring Dodie’s 12 years of service,  is at 1 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 17 at the First Christian Church, 402 N. First St. A light luncheon and cake will be served.

The center’s building is closed indefinitely after pipes in the attic burst during the January freeze. No date for reopening has been set, with repairs expected to take an extended period of time.

Many of the center’s activities have been shifted to other locations because of the building closure.
For times and locations, consult the center’s website at  silvertonseniors.org  or call the new executive director, Simone Stewart, at 503-873-3093 or email  [email protected].
