Go for the Gold!

Are you competitive, want to meet new friends, and are age 50 or over? If so, then go for the gold this year at the Georgia Golden Olympics scheduled for September 23-26 in Warner Robins, GA. This annual competition includes 18 sports and more than 50 events including tennis, golf, swimming, track & field, cycling, bowling, ballroom dancing, horseshoes, billiards, archery, and much more.

The purpose of the games is to create an awareness of the abilities of older adults, to maintain and improve health and wellness, and to promote an interest in lifetime sports, recreation, and physical activity. This credo is aligned with Senior Citizen Services’ own mission statement to enable our seniors to enjoy a high quality of life while maintaining their independence and dignity.

Additional information about the Georgia Golden Olympics can be found on their web site at www.georgiagoldenolympics.org or by calling 770-867-3603.
