COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are some of the benefits of membership?

Click here to visit our Membership Benefits page.

 

Is there an age limit to membership?

No! People of any age are invited to join Downtowners. Our programs, events, and services are most likely to be attractive and useful to people who are nearing or at retirement age, but we welcome people from any decade.

 

What if I don't live Downtown?

You wouldn't be the only one! Membership is open to anyone in Lancaster County, and our footprint continues to grow. Our members love the city of Lancaster, regardless of their address. The majority of our programs are held within the city, and most of our volunteers are centered in the 'Lancaster Metropolitan Area'. If you're unsure if you are a right fit based on your location, please contact the office so we can help you.

 

Downtowners is part of the Village to Village Network. If I don’t currently live in Lancaster, how can I find a Village in the area where I live now?

There are about 300 villages like the Downtowners across the country. You can see if there is village elsewhere by visiting the Village to Village Network Map.

 

Can I get my friend/sister/parents/client a gift membership?

Of course! Membership makes a great gift! Simply call the office and we’ll tell you about gift membership options.
