Free activities for International Day of Older Persons

Sep 26, 2020 | 11:00 AM

The United Nations International Day of Older Persons is coming up on October 1 with free activities happening at Red Deer’s recreation facilities.

Seniors, 65-year or older, are invited to reserve spots for those activities which are happening at the G.H. Dawe, Collicutt and downtown Recreation Centre.

Due to COVID-19, the annual Senior’s Fair was cancelled.

“We are happy to have our older adults join us for free activities on October 1,” said Barb McKee, Recreation Superintendent. “By highlighting programs and activities available to seniors, we hope to encourage older Red Deerians to stay healthy, active and connected.”

Activities range from aquatic fitness to public skating, as well as pickleball, basketball, fitness classes and more. Reservations are happening through the Look ‘n Book site, or you can visit RedDeer.ca/reserve and then call in to secure a spot.
