Connections
Members regularly tell us how moments of connection, whether it is for programming, exercise, or a holiday meal, are a lifeline.
We offer classes ranging from expert fishing tips, to religious and spiritual exploration, to retirement planning, to learning a new craft, sport or hobby.
Members enjoy our book club and card clubs, including Bridge, Cribbage, Hand and Foot, as well as game clubs including Mahjong, Mexican Train, and we add more every month.
Movement
Independence for our senior community is so important and we know that staying active with exercise classes, movement & balance classes and pickleball are key. We have a variety of classes available everyday at the Y.
We also live stream our exercise classes directly to our members’ homes, so they can continue to move, and see familiar, friendly faces across the screen.
