SENIOR FITNESS 2010/2011

Our goal is to provide activities, motivational encouragement and facilities for Senior citizens of Elmwood Park to raise their individual levels of Physical Fitness and emotional well being.

 

INDOOR WALKING PROGRAM

Free blood pressure testing will take place on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of every month from 10:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. at  the Elmwood Park Fire Station; 7 Conti Parkway (North Station).  Each walker will maintain his/her own personal fitness card keeping track of time, distance, dates, weight, blood pressure, and personal fitness goals.  If desired, a weekly or monthly weigh-in will be available.  A stretching area will be provided along with an hour of music to walk to.  Walking 20,000 miles as a group is our goal.  At the close of the 2011 year a coffee and cake awards ceremony will be held at the Recreation Center.  Awards will be given for the greatest distances walked in specific age categories.

 

Monday,  Wednesday & Friday   9:00 a.m. – 11:00 p.m.

Classes currently in session. 

Fee:  Free to Elmwood Park Residents

 

ARMCHAIR FITNESS PROGRAM

Physical Instructor, Alan Schmidt, will lead Seniors in stretching and light exercise.  Participants will remain seated for most of the exercising.  This program is designed for Seniors who have difficulty in walking or those who simply prefer to exercise from the sitting position.

 

Monday, Wednesday & Friday   9:45 a.m. – 10:45 a.m.

Classes currently in session.

Fee:  Free to Elmwood Park Residents

 

SENIOR CITIZEN GOLF PROGRAM

Indoor golf will begin Thurs., Nov., 4 at the White Pines Golf Dome.  The golf dome is a climate controlled indoor golf driving range located at 500 W. Jefferson St., in Bensenville.  For directions and further information contact Alan Schmidt at 452-3935.  From 8:00 – 9:30 a.m. (1-1/2 hrs.) two Seniors will share a driving range mat, thus getting 45 minutes of individual driving range time.  The season will last until the last Thursday of  May, 2011.  You do not have to own golf clubs to participate and you DO NOT have to be participating every Thursday of the season.  This is the great opportunity for those who have never golfed and would like to give it a try as well as to keep the veteran golfer skills sharpened during the winter season.

Register by phone by calling

Alan Schmidt at 708-452-3935 Fee:  $9.00
