We are a place where adults can enjoy a vibrant retirement filled with activity, the company of great friends, continued learning and opportunities to use their talents. The senior program began in 1977 as the Papillion Over 60’s Nutrition Site and activities were supported by a “Site Council” of officers, including Billie Jepsen. The program was housed at city hall, the current mayor was Bill Oli
ver, activities were provided by the Papillion Parks and Recreation Department and meals were provided by ARA Services of Omaha. In 1978 ENOA (Eastern Nebraska Office of Aging) contracted the lunches and they were catered. The Papillion Senior Center underwent big changes in 1992 when they moved to the present location of the club house at Tara Hills Golf Course. The City of Papillion provided the building and ENOA provided tables, chairs and kitchen equipment. Many volunteers remember cleaning and decorating the building for occupancy. Over the years the kitchen has been expanded, cabinets and counter space have been added and the patio was enclosed in 2002 providing more dining space, a dance floor and a nurse’s office. The Papillion Senior Center thrived at this location as a non-profit organization dedicated to serving the grand generation through nutritional, recreational, educational, social programs and services. In January 2020, the center transitioned to a new location at the Papillion Landing Community Center and is now known as the Papillion Landing 55+ Club. We are a place where adults can enjoy a vibrant retirement filled with activity, the company of great friends, continued learning and opportunities to use their talents to serve others. It operates under the umbrella of the City of Papillion Parks and Recreations Department and the Corporate Board of Directors.
