The Viking Senior Citizens Club is a drop-in centre on 53 Avenue with room for around two hundred and ten people and a regular calendar of activities for seniors in and around Viking. The club is open to anyone fifty years of age or older, and its stated purpose is to provide recreational, educational, cultural, and social activities for seniors. Members gather for bridge on Tuesdays, floor curling on Fridays, and smear on Saturdays, with whist on the first and third Monday of the month, pool tables available through the week, and a walking program that runs over the winter. The hall is also rented out for community events.
MCSnet sponsors the internet connection at the club, so members can get online during activities or while helping run an event. The Senior Citizens Club is one of several MCSnet sponsored hotspots in Viking, alongside the Legion, the Ag Society, the Historical Society museum, United Church, and the Golf Course, all sharing the same network name and password.

A seniors centre is often where members video call grandchildren, look up a recipe for the next potluck, or simply stay in touch between activities, and not everyone in the room has a strong cellular plan. A free, encrypted Wi-Fi connection keeps the club’s drop-in afternoons connected without anyone worrying about data.
