This fall, Sally’s Senior Adventure Club makes its return at The Salvation Army London Citadel. The program runs for six weeks, beginning this October.<\/p>\n
Nicole Pelcz, the program\u2019s coordinator, is excited to bring back this initiative after a successful spring 2023 session. The club is specifically designed for seniors aged 55 and older, aiming to keep them active and engaged in the community.<\/p>\n
“We have a substantial senior population at our church, and we came up with the idea of blending a craft program with adventure to encourage seniors to stay active,” Nicole says.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
During each session, the first half is dedicated to crafting, followed by a shared lunch. In the afternoon, participants engage in enjoyable, low-impact physical activities such as shuffleboard, balloon volleyball, line dancing, nature walks and scavenger hunts.<\/p>\n
By calling it a club, the organizers aim to foster a sense of belonging among seniors, offering them the opportunity to create new friendships and build relationships.<\/p>\n
Each club meeting will consist of a different adventure to bring recreational exercise opportunities to seniors.
