Activities & Presentations
When the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic, a new reality took hold. The City of Dublin puts the health and safety of its community above all else and continues to work with local and state officials to monitor this ever changing situation. Older adults, 65 years and older, and persons with pre-existing medical conditions or compromised immune systems are at a higher risk for COVID-19.
In an effort to provide safe programming for DCSC members, we are developing creative ways to engage our participants while at home or while social distancing. Social distancing doesn’t have to mean social isolation. Stay connected…
Movie Madness
A first-run movie is shown each month with a limit of 30 patrons at each showing for social distancing. Your DCSC Member Connection highlights which movies are to be shown and includes pertinent movie details. DCSC members must be registered to attend each movie. Closed captioning is available.

DCSC Drive-In Bingo
Let’s get out of the house and play some BINGO. Park your car in the designated northeast corner of the Recreation Center parking lot starting at 12:30pm. All participants will remain in their cars and need to wear masks when anyone approaches. Tune into 89.3FM to hear announcements and numbers being called. If you are lucky enough to win a game, then honk your car horn to receive a prize. The last game is coverall for a grand prize. Additional information provided in the monthly DCSC Member Connection email.
