\u201cTown Staff have worked closely with the Aurora Seniors\u2019 Association, the Older Adults Centre\u2019s Association of Ontario and York Region Public Health to develop procedures and guidelines in accordance with Provincial and Regional health department regulations,\u201d said Mayor Tom Mrakas in a statement. \u201cThis pandemic has impacted everyone, especially our seniors in the community who may be experiencing social isolation. Staff have taken every precaution to ensure the Aurora Seniors\u2019 Centre is a safe place to return to and to provide programs and activities geared towards getting them back to being active and social once again.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seniors\u2019 Centre members are encouraged to book a facility tour ahead of Monday\u2019s opening to view the facility and get a handle on new safety protocols set to be implemented.
