As part of my commitment to encourage a healthy and active lifestyle – I would like to take a moment to let you know about the Nova Scotia 55+ Games Society.
Like the Canada 55+ Games Association, their mission is to bring together individuals from across the province, aged 55+, to an event featuring games of both physical and mental challenges, and at the same time provide a venue emphasizing social interaction.
The Nova Scotia 55+ Games Society was formed in November of 2003 under the initiative of the Nova Scotia Senior Citizen’s Secretariat (now known as the NS Dept. of Seniors).
Through bi-annual Nova Scotia 55+ Games, as well as support for any other like games at the Regional, Zone or community levels, the Society encourages a healthier and more active lifestyle for older adults in Nova Scotia.
It must be emphasized that they are not necessarily looking for the elite athletes in each activity, but there is nothing stopping them from participating as long as they are willing to having a good time – which, after all, their main objective.
They are now preparing for the 2014 Canada 55+ Games which are scheduled to be held in Alberta on August 27-30th.
