RDN celebrates Active Aging week with free activities

Oceanside residents will be able to participate in 28 free activities as the Regional District of Nanaimo prepares to launch their Active Aging Campaign to celebrate aging and promote a healthy lifestyle.  

The RDN says they have been working with community partners since 2013 and have offered free drop-in activities for the community to recognize Active Aging Week.  

According to a media release, the annual event will be hosted at various venues throughout the Parksville and Qualicum area and will provide a variety of activities to build connections between older adults and their communities to create a network of senior-orientated organizations. 

The event will feature events like yoga, Pilates, tai chi, curling, walking and line dancing. It will also host several arts and crafts, as well as presentations and a concert. 

The event is scheduled to take place from Oct. 3 to 7 and for a full list of all the events visit the RDN’s website.
