The Pleasanton Senior Center will host the Grand Opening of the Sage Café starting at 11:30 a.m. today.

The café is the result of a partnership between the Pleasanton Senior Center and Open Heart Kitchen, which will manage the café as the center’s new congregate meal program. The grand opening festivities will include live entertainment, door prizes and give-aways.

The Sage Café offers savory, healthy choices in a pleasant and social environment. The daily lunch menu includes fresh salad, soup, and a choice of a hot entrée or a sandwich, juice and dessert for $3. In addition, to-go meals are also available.

The Pleasanton Senior Center offers more than 25 classes each week, as well as the administration of the popular Pleasanton Paratransit Program, which provides a door-to-door shared ride and a fixed route same day transportation service for eligible Pleasanton and Sunol residents (70 years of age and older and those that are Americans With Disabilities Act certified).

On a monthly basis the center also offers a variety of exercise classes including Zumba Gold©, tai chi and yoga, free movies, a lecture series, tea time socials, an inter-generational reading program, a computer users group, a photo club, a Newcomer’s Welcome, and games including contract bridge, bocce, and mah-jong.
