New programming means more senior fun in Geauga Park District
Boating, biking and bocce are just some of the new activities planning for seniors this summer through Geauga Park District’s enhanced programming for its more mature visitors!
These new Senior Days continue throughout the summer: at Orchard Hills Park on Wednesday, August 17; and at Frohring Meadows on Wednesday, September 14.
Starting at 10 a.m., each Senior Day will include a range of different activities to enjoy. Additionally, the Geauga County Department on Aging will coordinate picnic lunches, so there’s a free lunch in it for you if you join in on the fun!
Registration is required for Senior Days, which is completely free to attend, at www.geaugaparkdistrict.org or 440-286-9516. To learn more about each day’s schedule of events, you can also call or visit the website and choose Find a Program/Event, then choose Seniors/Grandparents in the interest search.
For seniors who love bocce, or have always been wanting to try, Sunnybrook Preserve is now hosting Pick-Up Bocce every Tuesday throughout the summer at 11:30 a.m. No registration or equipment is required; thanks to the Geauga County Department on Aging for its partnership.
And finally, as in years past, active seniors are still welcomed and encouraged to join Geauga Walkers for 1 to 1 ½ mile hikes in Geauga County parks on these Tuesdays: July 26 at Whitlam Woods; August 9 at Swine Creek Reservation; August 23 at Big Creek Park; September 6 at Chickagami Park; and September 20 at Orchard Hills Park.
Registration is not required for these hikes, which all begin at 1 p.m. Call Geauga Senior Center for the Geauga Walkers’ full, county-wide schedule at 440-279-2137.
Geauga Park District is online at www.geaugaparkdistrict.org, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube.
