Semmes Senior Center,

9635 Moffett Road, Semmes, AL 36575

The Semmes Senior Center is located at 9635 Moffett Road in Semmes, Alabama, United States. Housed in the Blackwell-Batson Estate, a 4,000 square foot home on four wooded acres, the Senior Center opened its doors in 2013 to cater to the recreational needs of senior citizens in Semmes. Seniors aged 62 and above are welcome to enjoy the various amenities offered, including an exercise room, a billiards room, a computer room, and a multi-purpose room for arts, crafts, and games.

Funded largely by Community Block Grant Funds (CDBG) obtained by the Mobile County Commission, with support from County Representative Connie Hudson, the Semmes Senior Center continues to operate thanks to annual contributions from these funds. The Semmes Woman’s Club also played a key role in raising funds during development and currently manages and operates the Senior Center through volunteers. Sponsorship donations from the City of Semmes during development, along with an annual appropriation from the city, help support the center's operations.

The Semmes Senior Center aims to provide recreational options that keep seniors active and engaged in their later years, and is a community project strongly supported by the city government. Seniors interested in becoming members can stop by the center to fill out membership applications, with annual dues set at $40.
