What exactly is Senior Matters

...because seniors matter!

Senior Matters is a sub-committee of the Parks and Recreation Commission for the Town of Carbondale, Colorado. Carbondale is located on the Western Slope of Colorado between Glenwood Springs and Aspen.

Folks in Carbondale realized that there were many offerings for our youth and other age groups, but there was no specific organization that offered activities for seniors. Thanks to the efforts of Virginia Gina Sterrett, and many others, Senior Matters was formed in 2006.

Notes from Target Promoting:

After months of soul searching I have decided to put Senior Matters back up. I feel it is an important part to the Carbondale community and even in economic down times like this people and support groups like this should always come before personal feelings and money.

I feel that many people have lost touch with what is important anymore (including myself) and I have to return to the values I feel are important in life. I feel if Christ forgave me of my debt for sin I should do likewise in the little things such as this.

When it is all said and done, it is not the cars you own, the houses you have or the money in the bank that is important in life, but it is the way you live your life and treat those around you.

So I have decided to continue the agreed services (free of charge) for Senior Matters. I will continue doing the updates, SEO services and any future additions. I feel that what Randy Vanderhurst did by developing this site was a GREAT contribution to the Carbondale community and I feel money should never stand in the way of a great cause.

Sincerely,

David Vande Burgt
