CORE Adult Center

The CORE Adult Center supports independence and well-being for older adults. In April of 2021 the former Champlain Senior Center located on North Winooski Avenue was renamed-Burlington Recreation CORE Adult Center and programming has since been offered through Burlington, Parks, Recreation, and Waterfront. The Adult Center provides a rich array of nutritional, educational, health, social and recreational programs to people age 50 and over. Programs aim to enhance dignity and self-respect, and promote participation in community life.

A day at the center

Programming is from 10am-2pm, Monday-Friday. The schedule for the day includes both a morning and afternoon program which are listed on the monthly program calendar. There are a wide variety activities throughout the month including classes in movement, art, cooking, and various educational topics. There are also occasional field trips to local attractions. At noon, a hot lunch is served in partnership with Age Well. Transportation through SSTA is also available, free of charge, to Burlington residents.
