Congratulations to Roberts Senior Center

We went to the Roberts Senior Center May 6 for their Mother's Day Luncheon. It was another awesome production. Our purpose there today was to award the Center with their "official" World Famous certificate for their Chicken Fried Steak. We took some still photos but not much video as we already have a great YouTube of the meal on their webpage. Click here to see the photos we came home with. The text below was what we passed out to the attendees at the lunch.

Eastern Idaho Retired & Senior Volunteer Program & Area VI Agency on Aging offer congratulations and kudos to the Roberts Senior Center for their World Famous Chicken Fried Steak and what it means for publicizing the Roberts Senior Center.

Not only is the Roberts World Famous Chicken Fried Steak awesome and tasty in its own right but it’s doing workhorse duty helping draw visitors to the Roberts Senior Center webpage.

In the entire year 2008, there were only 24 recorded visits to the Roberts Senior Center webpage. So far in Year 2009, there have been 118 visits!!!! That’s more than four times as many visits to the webpage in five months as the entire year of 2008.

Also, visitors to the webpage have been clicking through to the video as there have been 99 views recorded of the video. This puts it in the Top Five ranking videos of the 22 that RSVP has produced this year. Clearly, people love looking at your World Famous Chicken Fried Steak. There have even been some overseas visitors from Europe that have viewed the video.

RSVP & AAA are both dedicated to helping the Area VI Senior Centers in any way we can. We believe that fresh new ideas like making a video on the Chicken Fried Steak will help bring fresh faces to the Senior Centers. The videos will help showcase Senior Centers as a fun, lively place to go for food, friends and fellowship.
