ACTIVE ADULTS

Practice fitness, exercise joy. The Active Adult Program is for anyone 55 and older seeking programs from exercise opportunities to social clubs; self-improvement seminars to exciting travel opportunities. A wonderful way for older adults to enjoy the camaraderie of others in a safe and Christian environment, the program is free – but, some fees may be charged for various activities. A monthly calendar provides information on all Active Adult activities.

Book Club
You read it here first. Stimulate your mind and share your passion for reading at The YMCA Book Club. The Club meets on the second Wednesday of every month in the Active Adult/Teen Room at the Jamerson YMCA. Books are chosen in advance by book club members and titles are posted in the Active Adult monthly calendar. New members are always welcome.

Bridge Club
It’s in the cards. Novice or shark, you’re welcome to play. The YMCA Bridge Club meets on the third Tuesday of every month, from 1-3pm in the Active Adult/Teen Room at the Jamerson YMCA. Old and new friends await you for an afternoon of card playing fun! Please pre-register by calling Mary Taylor at 582-1900, at least one week in advance of game day.

Travel Opportunities
Let’s get going! The YMCA Active Adult Program offers exciting and interesting day trips, as well as extended stays. All trips are pre-planned and information is mailed to program participants well in advance. Non-Y members are invited to participate for an additional fee. If you are interested in receiving more information, please contact the Active Adult Coordinator at 582-1900.

Active Older Adult Room
Let us entertain you. The Active Adult Room offers a wide range of entertainment: enjoy a game of pool, ping pong, foosball or air hockey. Simply relax while watching your favorite show on the Y’s wide screen TV, or master your computer skills on one of the four personal computers with Internet access. Free coffee available.

Volunteer Opportunities
Share your talent, share your life. The Active Adult Program offers many opportunities for members to become YMCA volunteers. If you have a special skill or talent you wish to share with others, or would like to help with monthly mailings, please call us 582-1900 and get involved at a level that works for you.
