Wellness & Fitness:

The Agency’s “Senior Center” is home to a wide range of enrichment and fellowship activities designed to help keep seniors active and involved.  We also take the lead in developing and coordinating programs offered throughout the community at the locations of senior-friendly business partners.

Fitness Center & SilverSneakers®

Our Fitness Center offers a variety of fun, fitness opportunities for area seniors.  The Fitness Center is equipped with commercial-grade equipment, including 2 treadmills, 2 elliptical trainers and 2 Bio-Step machines (special recumbent-style elliptical trainers often used in physical rehab programs).  Seniors can also supplement their routines with an assortment of hand weights, stretch bands and balance balls.  Plus, our Wii Fit equipment is so much fun you won't believe you're exercising.
