“Worth Repeating” is a weekly feature on the EngAGE Blog that will bring you previous posts that we think are still timely, interesting, or just plain fun! From 3/6/12:
“Senior centers around the country are moving out the bingo tables to make way for basketball courts, fitness centers and yoga classes. While the nation’s 1,500 senior centers still focus on services for the frail and infirm, they are preparing for the deluge of fitness-focused boomers.” Read more here about the new, “cooler, hipper” centers.
The new face of seniors like me is not bingo that is for sure. My partner and I were frustrated that there is much more to growing older than shuffle board. We founded a new lifelong learning site just for us. It is new and we are looking for like kind baby boomers to join us and help it grow. Please go to http://www.seniorlearningnetwork.com and register. We have video conferencing from over 400 different locations, webinars, streaming events etc. We would love feed back as well.
