Join us for our 8th Annual Bedford Block Party on Saturday, October 11 from 2-5 PM! The private VIP party will take place at the historic Beede Manor in Antioch, CA.
Festivities will include a delicious Mexican feast, refreshments, music, and of course, our annual bocce ball tournament! Proceeds will help fund scholarships, meals, program activities, art, music, physical and occupational therapies; any and all items that will bring smiles and joy to the lives of our beloved participants at The Bedford Center for Adult Day Health Care.
For decades, The Bedford Center has provided community-based services for older adults and people with disabilities, Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, and other chronic conditions. Our focus is to keep our vulnerable friends out of institutions while giving their caregivers much-needed and deserved respite, education, and support. Thank you for helping us continue to provide these essential services for the frailest members of our community!
Online registration closes on Friday, September 26.
Our online auction will be open to ALL! Bidding begins at 8 AM on Tuesday, October 7 and closes at 8 PM on Tuesday, October 14. We would be happy to accept auction item donations including (but not limited to) tickets, experiences, gift baskets, gift cards, jewelry, memorabilia, wine, and more! Please contact us if you are interested in donating an auction item.
This year, we are honoring the late, beloved Federal Glover.
"Federal Glover was always a warm and welcoming presence throughout the more than two decades I spent urging the Transportation Authority to prioritize services for seniors and people with disabilities. He was one of the few who truly listened and lifted up voices that had long been silenced. He never turned his back on seniors. In fact, he played a key role in helping Choice in Aging repurchase The Bedford Center for the same dollar for which it had been sold to the City of Antioch. With his leadership, we transformed what was once a volunteer-run social program into the only licensed Adult Day Health Care center serving East Contra Costa County. Federal was a kind ally to elders and Choice in Aging, and we miss him dearly."
– Debbie Toth, Choice in Aging President & CEO
