Tell us what you did during Active Aging Week to redefine the term "Active."

City of Saint Peter...Active Aging Week in Saint Peter, Minnesota – sponsored by the Mankato Clinic Foundation and Friends of the Saint Peter Library – was a weeklong of free events including a one-mile fun walk, Pickleball clinic, make and take craft day, field day with the local preschool and concluded with a mini-Senior Expo. Nearly 75 people took part of the events and each person was given a goodie lunch bag with the AAW logo; the lunch bag was full of swag provided by local vendors including ice packs, oranges and a bottle of water. This was the first time Saint Peter hosted Active Aging Week and the reception was very positive. We look forward to offering this program in the future.
