Funding Complete For New Sulphur Springs Senior Center, No Fundraiser Necessary

Sulphur Springs City Manager Marc Maxwell reported that funding for a new Senior Citizens Center is complete, and construction on the new facility will start in about three months with completion by March of 2023. There had been a fundraiser that started to raise about $400,000 to increase the size of the center so it could host two events each year that draw large crowds. City Manager Maxwell said those two events, the Clara Bridges 90-Plus Banquet and the Senior Olympics, could easily be held at other venues in town.
