While the holiday season is about spending time with the people you love, these next few weeks can be hard for those without a strong, supportive network of family and friends. One thing to be thankful for, though, are the senior services that are available throughout Denver and the surrounding areas. Senior centers and rec centers throughout Colorado offer many opportunities for the senior population to get active, both physically and socially, within their communities. Many of these centers provide daily exercises classes, art classes, social clubs, and even lunch and meal services. These centers are great for busting the winter blues and staying active when it’s cold outside.
Take a look at the list we’ve put together, below. This list is a very short sampling of all the centers throughout the state, so feel free to use the links we’ve provided to find additional centers and to get more information on what’s available in your area. You’ll be surprised by all that’s out there!
