    Tis the time's plague, when madmen lead the blind. --…read moreKing Lear We got a call from a Senior Veteran friend who lives in Sparks, Nevada to tell us that he had heard that Sparks Senior Center was having a special event to honor and thank Veterans on the Friday before Veterans Day, which is their regular Fun Day he told us, and would we like to go with him. SURE! Sounds fun! We arrived, my husband and I were wearing our Veterans' hats and shirts. Our Veteran friend was wearing his Viet Nam Veterans' leather vest. Since we're all Seniors we shuffled in, following a woman Veteran (she was wearing a Veterans cap and her cane was decorated with Veterans' stickers) that the public bus had just dropped off. She asked the woman at the counter about the Veterans event. Instead of thanking this woman Veteran for her military Service, some other woman who was down a long hallway with a door partially closed, yelled at this woman Veteran, essentially accusing her of being wrong at best and a liar at worst. It was painful to watch. Apparently there was to be no Veterans event or Fun Day that day. To add insult to injury, a woman wearing a Trump Vance campaign button came up to the woman Veteran, and my husband and I and our Veteran friend as we were waiting, and demanded why we all were in costume when it was no longer Halloween. She DIDN'T EVEN RECOGNIZE our Veterans accoutrements, or couldn't read since our hats, shirts and a vest all had Veteran predominately on them, or DOESN'T KNOW WHAT A VETERAN IS! The woman Veteran shuffled outside. We followed her outside since the people there are WEIRD and CRUEL and STUPID and UNFRIENDLY and UNWELCOMING and RUDE! See my previous review. The public bus was dropping their lift for the woman Veteran to board, when the woman from inside who had yelled at the woman Veteran while we all were inside, suddenly came outside. She confronted immediately the woman Veteran, told her she was gonna ban her from the center. NO one at this Senior Center thanked us for our military Service or welcomed us or gave us any respect or support or friendliness. It's NOT Veteran-friendly. Sparks people are NOT Veteran-friendly. Washoe County employees are NOT Veteran-friendly. We WON'T be back. P.S. Don't message me because in spite of several complaints to yelp, for years now I am unable to open up any messages in yelp to me :-(

    I've only been twice, I came out in January to look after my mom. I couldn't be more impressed. My…read morebackground is running a small USDA inspected food processing plant. My guess, the food is prepared in a commissary off site kitchen and it's excellent. Both days we've ordered the hot meal and it was delicious, very eye appealing and nutritious! The staff and clients are super friendly. On my first visit I was quizzing a nice couple on services available to seniors in Sparks. Today was their Valentine's lunch, complete with cake and ice cream, roses handed out by an AARP person and handmade Valentines made by school kids. My mom absolutely loved it. The poor staff was absolutely slammed by the turnout that I even offered to roll up my sleeves and help. Sorry, forgot the name of the woman that is the mgr. She's fantastic, you can tell how much she cares for those she serves, as her staff. We'll be back later in the month and I want to encourage my mom to go often.

    I finished the cake, but did pass on the ice cream (watching my girlish figure)
