The KSCA is located in the Catlin Center that is leased from the city of Kelso. Built in 1939, the structure is largely unchanged. In 2020, we cleaned up the Main Hall, Library, and rest rooms, added a modern kitchen; and took up occupancy. Over the ensuing years, KSCA volunteers spent countless hours making the attic, Blue Room, and South Hall usable.
​
In 2024 the City of Kelso renovated the building with a new roof, siding, and windows. Click on the Catlin Center, Celebrating 85 years in Kelso box above left to see details of the renovations.
​
The Kelso Senior Center Association is managed by a 15-member Board of Directors that meets at 9:30 am on the 2nd Thursday of each month.​ These meetings are open to all who are interested.
