Frequently Asked Questions

Because we have a reciprocal arrangement with all towns in Massachusetts, you do not have to be a Belmont resident to attend programs at the Belmont Council on Aging. However, some programs are restricted to Belmont residents, such as transportation services and the fitness room program.

You may sign up for all programs and activities by phone at 617-993-2970 or in person at the center during operating hours.

The monthly newsletter, "Senior Notes", lists all activities and is available at various drop-off points around town including the Beech Street Center. Also, a calendar of events is on the Town website and on the Center's website.

For homebound seniors, "Senior Notes" can be sent by mail. In addition, participants can sign up to be on the email distribution list, and will be informed on a weekly basis regarding activities.

All Adults are welcome to attend all classes, performances, recreational activities, trips, social assistance, and general use of the Beech Street Center.  Transportation services are restricted to adults age 60 and over, or the disabled, as space permits.  Lunch is for anyone 60 and over or persons of any age who may accompany them.
