The YMCA is not just a place where you can work out and stay fit; it's also a great place for seniors to socialize and participate in fun activities. Senior Events are designed to help seniors stay active and engaged and are the opportunity to connect with others in your community. Whether you're new to the area or have lived here your whole life, participating in social activities is a great way to make new friends and build relationships. You'll have the chance to meet people from all walks of life who share your interests and passions, and you might even find a new best friend!
A partnership with the Valley Care Endowment supports this important work.
DISH AND TELL RECIPE EXCHANGE
What is your favorite recipe? Is it a legendary family recipe or a new one you came across? I bet it’s delicious! Share your recipe with the group by bringing a sample and a copy of the recipe, and let’s exchange! We are happy to make copies of the recipe you provide, so even if you only keep it safe in your head, we will send everyone home with a copy of the recipe they are interested in recreating.
April 11, 10:30-12:30 p.m.
APRIL SHOWERS BRING MAY FLOWERS
Even if you don’t have a green thumb, join us for planting fun! Let’s create a plant from seeds while reminiscing about our favorite vegetable and flower garden stories. Have a favorite plant? Then, bring a bag of seeds to share. We will supply “starter” cups, soil and seeds, but if you have a small flower pot you would like to use, bring it with you.
April 25, 10:30-12:30 p.m.
PAINT AND SNACK
Join us for some painting fun! A special guest will help us turn our canvas into a masterpiece! Or, bring a small flower pot, rocks for the garden, or other craft to paint instead.

ONE STEP AT A TIME
Let’s go for a walk! Let’s get together and walk the indoor track at the gym or the sidewalks of Sewickley. If you are a slow walker, that’s ok; we will make sure you have someone to walk beside you. Let’s stretch our legs and talk about our favorite places we used to hike or walk to. We will meet in the Oasis before heading to our walking destinations. Refreshments provided.
