Active Aging Week promotes healthy living for seniors in the RDN
PARKSVILLE — We may not all grow old gracefully, but Active Aging Week is an attempt to help seniors fight father time and stay healthy.
The Regional District of Nanaimo is planning events in the Oceanside area until Saturday.
Keeping those over 65 active is important according to RDN recreation programmer Jennifer Hopewell.
“For people who are living from the Nanoose to Bowser area, an opportunity to try new activities,” said Hopewell. “We are one of the oldest populations in the province and in the country however we are also one of the most active. There’s lots of opportunities to stay active and this is a week to just highlight those opportunities.”
