Broomfield Senior Services Art Cart wins recognition  

Broomfield Senior Services received the 2006 Outstanding New Service Award for the Broomfield Senior Art Cart at the annual Colorado Association of Senior Centers (CASC) conference last Friday at the Buck Recreation Center in Littleton.  

Suzanne Bazinet, senior services supervisor, worked with volunteers to make this new cultural service in Broomfield a reality. Funded by Senior Resources of Broomfield, Inc. (SRB), and built by the senior woodshop volunteers, the Art Cart has helped over 24 local senior artists display and sell their handcrafted works of art. 

The CASC, a division of the Colorado Parks and Recreation Association, presents awards annually to recognize organizations, individuals, and volunteers who help older adults live a longer, better quality life. 

Last year, Senior Services won the group’s Outstanding Program Award for the Freedom to Ride senior transportation educational program.
