The “Fun, Games, Snacks & Desserts” event was a vibrant gathering that brought together 45 seniors and adults in a lively community hall, creating an afternoon filled with joy and connection. The day began with a refreshing 15-minute exercise session that set the tone for the fun ahead. Energized and excited, attendees spent the next hour engaging in a variety of games, including mini golf, bean bag toss, and horse racing. These activities not only sparked friendly competition but also filled the room with laughter and camaraderie. The event then took a delicious turn as everyone indulged in a global feast of snacks and desserts, with treats like Indian samosas, Filipino spring rolls (lumpia), and Italian cakes, turning the day into both a social and culinary adventure.
The primary aim of the event was to encourage seniors and adults to step out of their homes, engage in physical activity, and socialize in a welcoming environment. Through the games, attendees had the opportunity to exercise both their minds and bodies while promoting equity, inclusion, and community togetherness. The event also fostered learning, sharing, and bonding, as participants made new friends and connected over their shared experiences. The diverse food selection allowed everyone to celebrate their cultural heritage and explore the flavors of different cuisines. Additionally, all attendees received a small gift of chocolates, and the winners of each game were awarded prizes, adding a special touch to the day. Overall, the event was a resounding success, with all attendees expressing their happiness and excitement, and many eagerly anticipating future gatherings. Thanks to NSG for making this possible.
