Forever Young
Our goal is to assist active older adults in staying healthy and active physically, mentally and socially. In addition to exercise programs designed with members aged 50 and up in mind, our day trips and luncheons are fun excursions that boost energy and spirit.
Intro
Our Forever Young/Active Older Adults group gives the opportunity for seniors to get involved and make friends at the YMCA through programs designed especially for them. By joining in, you can improve your fitness, increase your mobility and flexibility, reduce stress, and make new friends.
