Crafts and Games

Every month, Yorktown offers a variety of ways to be creative. Craft projects are seasonally themed, and often related to other events happening at the Center. For example, our seasonal dog-biscuit fundraiser, included the opportunity to create and assemble packaging.

Yorktown offers the opportunity for members to learn from each other. Our members share their talents in crafts, art, and inspiration. Our members enjoy a variety of games! We always provide the opportunity for card games, offer usage of our Wii game console, and enjoy the creative talent of our staff and community partners. Bingo is scheduled twice a week.

Assistance Programs

Yorktown’s ability to connect our members with community resources is one of the most exciting things that we do! We will assist with applications for Housing, Food Bank services, Energy Assistance programs, and more.

In 2017, we:

  • Hosted a Flu Shot clinic with Rite Aid pharmacy
  • Assisted the York County Office of Aging to distribute fresh produce/market vouchers
  • Connected our members with pets to the SPCA’s pet food assistance program
  • Introduced members to the safety equipment program of York City Fire Department
  • Provided numerous educational programs about health and personal safety

We encourage our members to avail themselves of the programs they are eligible for!

Educational Speakers

Guest Speakers provide education, news about community resources, and teach our members how to improve safety at home and on the go. Our Community Partners, at no cost to our members, provide much of resources needed to enrich the lives of every one who attends.
