Grants —in the new Senior Center on April 27thThough each Trek will be a little different, most feature hands-on workshops with health and fitness professionals. Adults learn best when they understand “why.” By combining education with activity, we get the greatest possible benefit from the workshops. NMSO will also provide coffee, juice and snacks at the welcome and the break. Lunch will be provided for a nominal fee (approximately $3.00) and NMSO will provide lunch to the first 100 registrants—so sign up early!!
Treks have exceeded all our expectations. The quality of presenters has been awesome. You will need a reservation! Call your local Senior Center for details for the Trek event in your area.
