Eagle County recently issued the following press release on its partnership with Vail Health and Mountain Recreation on its annual Active Aging Expo:
Eagle County Healthy Aging, Vail Health, and Mountain Recreation are teaming up to bring back an annual fun-filled morning for older adults at the Edwards Field House. Attendees will learn about opportunities to engage and be active in Eagle County, listen to educational talks, try new activities, take advantage of balance, blood pressure, glucose and cognitive screenings and make new friends and connections. New this year will be painting and flower arranging classes.
“May is Older Americans Month, so we are excited to hold this fun event to celebrate our older community members,” said Healthy Aging Manager Carly Rietmann.
Staying active as we age benefits physical and mental health, and may contribute to a longer life with greater independence. The expo will provide participants the opportunity to try various new activities such as archery, walking soccer, and a balance challenge course. Educational presentations will cover topics such as longevity, posture and strength, bladder health and more.
