Celebrating aging and the benefits of active living at any age, Active Aging Week showcases the capabilities of older adults as fully participating members of society. This campaign also spotlights role models that lead the way. Learn how you can join with thousands of Active Aging Week supporters to help change the way we age.
St. Andrews Estates/Acts Retirement Life Communities
Tell us what you did during Active Aging Week to redefine the term "Active."
At St. Andrews Estates, we scheduled activities that engaged body, mind, and spirit. For the body, we allowed residents to participate in activities such as water aerobics, water volleyball, and a chair volleyball tournament against neighboring Acts community Edgewater at Boca Pointe. For the mind, we broadcast a live-stream with Dr. Ron Kaiser called “Rejuvenaging” The Art and Science of Growing Older with Enthusiasm. For the spirit, the Chaplains conducted a prayer breakfast with the residents, and we also conducted a walk called “Wondering, Pondering, and Bonding” where residents had a session in the meditation garden and walked or biked over to the Veteran’s pavilion for the closing ceremony.
