Day Center for Seniors Opens in Littleton
The new Summit Adult Day and Wellness Center opened on August 29 in the Villager Square shopping area at Ken Caryl Avenue and Garrison Street in Littleton.

The sparkling new Center offers day programs for seniors who live with family and need help throughout the day while their caregivers work or participate in other activities. Seniors benefit from the array of services Summit offers for their health, safety and enjoyment. In turn, the family gains peace of mind and respite, knowing that their loved one is in good hands.
