Western Springs runs a dedicated Senior Center out of the Grand Avenue Community Center, open weekday afternoons for members age 55 and up ($40 residents/$50 non-residents annually). Fridays are the busiest day — mahjong, scrabble, and canasta each have a set weekly slot — while Tai Chi meets Monday and Friday late mornings plus Wednesday afternoons, and there's a Tuesday knitting circle. The center also hosts monthly Book Club and Movie Club meetings, a separate monthly Movie Day, recurring health talks with Dr. Heather Johnston, and an Active Adult Trips program for day trips.
