Active Adult Day is free to attend and open to the public.

Attendees will be able to participate in fitness challenges, line dancing and several other activities geared toward older citizens throughout the day.

Worrell said she hopes people will attend to learn there are many options available for members of the age group to continue to be healthy, strong and active in the community.

“They can come in and stay the whole time or pop in and pop out throughout the day,” she said.
