Senior Activities

Frankfort Township is pleased to provide our senior citizens with unique activities at the Frankfort Township Center.  We will be offering Tai Chi classes starting in March for 12 weeks at no charge to the Seniors, thanks to the Will County Senior Services.  Classes will start at 12:30 pm., more information to be announced.  Meals on Wheels lunches are also available through the Will County Senior Services. 

On the second and fourth Monday's we offer Wii Bowling starting at 9:00 an with a Meals on Wheels lunch to follow.

On the township grounds, the Autumn Valley apartment complex gives senior citizens secure and comfortable residences at a very reasonable cost.  Seniors aged 60 and older are eligible for one of the 24 apartments, and we will begin looking into additional buildings next summer. The Autumn Valley apartments are funded by rental fees, and no tax dollars are used to support them.

Call our Senior's Activity Director Jodi Gallagher-Dilling at 815-806-2766 for any additional information.
