Older Americans: It Is Your Time

May is Older Americans Month and this year's theme is "Never Too Old to Play." If you are an older American, now is the perfect time to look for opportunities in your community to become engaged and take advantage of fun physical activities.

Here are some ideas to get active:

  • Join a group exercise class at your local senior center or park district. Have fun practicing yoga or breaking a sweat dancing salsa.
  • Schedule time to walk or bicycle around your neighborhood.
  • Take your grandchildren to the park. Pack a picnic basket and spend a few hours being active and having fun.

For more information on health as you age, please visit our Healthy Aging section and consult a registered dietitian in your area.
