Riverside’s Janet Goeske Foundation and Senior Center will mark its 40th birthday with a country fair.
The Saturday, May 18, event is set for noon to 5 p.m. at the center.
Festivities will begin with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 11:30 a.m. Riverside Mayor Patricia Lock Dawson; Councilmember Steven Robillard; and state Sen. Richard Roth, D-Riverside; are expected to speak.
The fair will feature food, games, entertainment, vendors and raffles. Admission is free.
“My main goal for this event is outreach,” said Danielle Nelson, executive director of the Janet Goeske Foundation.
Nelson noted that many older residents are isolated and the senior center hopes to spread the word about its many services and invite more guests.
The senior center is at 5257 Sierra St., Riverside.
