Senior activities and day trips are available once you can connect with them. It took me awhile to find out that there is a group "Tinton Falls Seniors" since they meet at the municipal center rather then have a center listing. There is also "SCAN" a social community activities network in Monmouth Mall that host interesting events.

I live in a 55 plus building. We have meeting rooms, a full gym, and a visiting nurse who takes blood pressures every month.
