Ohio County Senior Services has found a way to get around COVID-19 and continue offering an event for its seniors â parking lot bingo â which the Senior Center has been hosting since October.
Judele Stone, assistant director of the Ohio County Senior Center, said seniors have been isolated since COVID-19 hit the region in March and parking lot bingo has been a way to get seniors out of their homes while maintaining social distance and safety.
âAll of our seniors were really missing each other and the activities and stuff so we thought on the pretty days, we would try and let them come out and sit six feet apart or in their cars,â she said. âThey can see each other from a distance and talk and just fellowship a little bit, but at a distance.â
