SENIOR FITNESS 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

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.
