Senior (50+) Recreation Program

Harker Heights Senior Recreation Program is designed for ages 50 & up. The program offers activities and events that will provide services that empower the seniors to focus on what matters most: their goals, hopes and dreams. The program promotes the participation of residents and non-residents through quality programs in socialization, nutrition, health, and recreation. All participants must register before attending programs. The monthly trips and a few classes do have a small fee.

All activities are held at the Recreation Center (unless otherwise noted).
