Join us every Tuesday from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM at the South Park Teen Center for Senior Bingo. Enjoy fellowship, laughter, prizes, and great memories in a welcoming environment. Best of all, it's free to attend and all seniors are welcome.

Adults can also make a splash this summer with Water Aerobics at the North Park Swimming Pool. Classes begin June 9 and will be held every Tuesday and Thursday from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM. Water aerobics is a great low-impact way to improve fitness, increase mobility, and have fun. Water shoes are recommended but not required.
