Golden Wedding Anniversary

This event honors all who have or will have achieved 50 years of marriage during the year of the celebration. The next two celebrations will honor those who were married in 1959 and 1960. The director of the program interviews the couples on stage to encourage them to relate those special moments of how they met and how they decided to marry. A minister, priest, deacon or rabbi is invited to lead the couples in a renewal of their marriage vows. All who are in the audience who are married longer than 50 years are invited to join in the renewal. The honored couples then lead a dance. Snacks are provded. Entrance is free to all. Relative and friends of the honored couples are especially invited. This is a family affair. This event is scheduled to fall on the closest Tuesday to St. Valentine's day, check the Event Schedule page for details.

Queen's Ball

The City of St. Cloud holds a Christmas Parade on the first Saturday of December. On the Friday before the parade, the Christmas tree in front of City Hall is lighted. On the Friday before the parade a senior queen is chosen from a number of contestants. In the past queens were chosen based on talent, as a reward for long service to the Senior Center, and recently for poise and presence.

There is no admission donation. A short dance set and then refreshments follow the crowning of the new queen.
