Riford Senior Club

530 Bury
913-845-2787

Tonganoxie is fortunate to have been the beneficiary of several financial endowments from Florence Riford. These gifts were spent to construct and maintain the Florence Riford Senior Club.

Mrs. Riford and her husband lived in Tonganoxie many years ago when he was a practicing veterinarian. They moved from Tonganoxie to southern California where they lived for many years. After Dr. Riford's death, Mrs. Riford revisited Tonganoxie and decided to make a cash endowment to build a Senior Center here. The Florence Riford Senior Club is the result of that endowment. The club provides space for many activities, including quilting, card playing, bingo and other fun activities.
