COLUMBUS, Ind. – Mill Race Center has been recognized by the National Council on Aging’s (NCOA) National Institute of Senior Centers (NISC) with a 2016 Programs of Excellence Award – Expressive and Creative Arts – for its Community Drum Circle. Mill Race Center, from a nominations pool of ninety-nine, was one of six honored with the annual recognition for innovative, creative, and replicable programs for older adults.
Mill Race Center was honored for its newly formed Community Drum Circle; which not only included participation in a fun and lively activity, but also included a cost effective and creative way to build your own drum.
“Mill Race Center is an important destination for older adults in Bartholomew County, and we work hard to keep our programs fun and educational for our members,” said Dan Mustard, Executive Director. “We appreciate the NISC Programs of Excellence award, and hope that other senior centers across the country will be able to replicate the Community Drum Circle to benefit their members. We certainly plan to keep the Circle going here at Mill Race Center and throughout the county.”
