Free Membership

We offer free membership to all Madison area adults age 55 and older. Members will receive an ID card with a barcode to sign in for activities. Registering takes as little as 30 seconds!

How do I apply for membership?

1. Fill out the Membership Form
2. Stop by our front desk to turn in your form and receive your ID card!

Key Cards – Checking-In

After you become a member you will receive a key card that you need to scan at the Front Desk each time you visit. If you forget your key card,
the Front Desk staff person will check you in manually. This allows us to keep track of how many people use the our facility.

Note: If you are at the Senior Center for lunch, you will also have to check-in at the NewBridge Nutrition Site.

Do Members Pay Program and Event Fees?

Although most of our activities are offered for free, there are occasionally fees. If the fees are a barrier for you, indicate that in the appropriate place on your membership application or contact the Front Desk for assistance. All financial assistance requests are kept confidential.

Language Access Program

The City of Madison Language Access Program provides access to
City services for people whose primary language is not English.
We are committed to improving accessibility for all. If you would
like more information, speak to a staff person or email us at seniorcenter@cityofmadison.com.

Will My Information Be Kept Private?

All of our members’ personal and attendance information is kept strictly confidential. Information gathered from our barcode scanning system is numeric only, and viewed in aggregate groups. This information helps us gather essential data on the Senior Center and maintain our funding.
