Senior Activities
Keeping active in mind and body
Many able-bodied
seniors want opportunities for social interaction and to keep their
minds alert and bodies healthy. Because those on fixed incomes have
limited resources for socializing, recreation and education, Keystone’s
Merriam Park Seniors Program provides year-round activities that
support participants’ independence and enhance their quality
of life.
PROGRAM SUMMARY
There
is something for just about every interest in this diverse program
for seniors ages 55 and up. Volunteers, both seniors and non-seniors,
play a major role in carrying out program activities. Seniors also
volunteer with other Keystone programs. A "think tank"
of senior participants meets regularly to develop program ideas
for the following types of activities:
- • Senior exercise
• Workshops and educational presentations
• Recreation, such as dance lessons, cards, seasonal parties
• Health clinics and health-related programs
• Support groups
- LOCATION
- Merriam Park Community Center
2000 St. Anthony Avenue
St. Paul, MN 55104
