Senior Advisory Council Meets first Tuesday • 11am

One of Carrollton’s biggest priorities is keeping its residents safe. The City and staff regret that we are unable to offer out-of-town trips and off-site excursions at this time and look forward to more adventures in the future. These outings come with lots of laughs, a stop for lunch, and occasionally an overnight stay to discover the exciting places not only Carrollton, but the whole country has to offer. Trips are always escorted by a Parks & Recreation staff member. These offerings will return as soon as possible.
