OMAHA, Neb. —

Ribs, burgers, and hot dogs were all on the menu at the hope center's senior citizens picnic on Saturday afternoon.

The Hope Center said they are working to bring attention to the closing of senior centers around the metro.

And they wanted to remind seniors there is still a place to come and enjoy the company of others.

"That's about you know collaborating with other seniors to pull them in because they all need some place to go," said Beth Howard.

The Hope Center's effort to continue supporting and helping seniors in the metro is inspired by its founder Terry Schindler and his vision of always helping the community.
