MIDDLETOWN, Calif. – The Middletown Senior Center hosted a sold-out cordon bleu dinner and silent auction recently.  

Executive Director Lori Tourville welcomed guests young and old while hors d’oeuvres were served prior to the cordon bleu dinner prepared by Chef Malori and crew.

Volunteer DJ Bob Krug played dinner music and some after dinner dance tunes.  

Board members Lilo Hanson and Pat Meyer praised the quality of the meal and the many donated silent auction items and summed up the evening as “delicious and fun.”

The evening netted $1,900 toward the Meals on Wheels Program.

Funds raised from this type of event fill out the subsidy received for the Meals on Wheels Program, which delivers balanced nourishing meals each day to home-bound seniors (age 60 and above).

Middletown delivers more than 800 meals per month to housebound seniors in Hidden Valley, Middletown and Cobb.

Although partial funding comes from the Area Agency on Aging and the Redbud Healthcare District, subsidization from the community in the amount of about $28,000 per year is required to fully fund this program. 

Middletown Senior Center is located at 21256 Washington St. For more information about Center activities and menus, call 707-987-3113 or go to the center’s Web site, www.middletownseniorcenter.org , or its Facebook page.
