The Horse Meadow Senior Center has been providing quality meals and excellent programming for a wide area since it opened 26 years ago. It is a wonderfully functional building and has continued to provide space for different types of activities for many residents in the surrounding area.

The club also participated in the New Hampshire State Flower Show in Manchester. In the spring of many years ago, Bruce Lake held a program on pruning trees and shrubs. They spruced up the area around the Ladd Street School and planted a multitude of tulips at the Haverhill Academy building.
