Senior Games
Senior Games Week is back! This event is hosted annually in June for Mifflin and Juniata County residents age 55 and older. Senior Games has been organized by the Mifflin-Juniata Area Agency on Aging staff and volunteers from the Senior Games Committee since 1986.
For many, the thrill of competing in an athletic event never ends. Senior Games encourages physical and mental activity, friendly competition, and the maintenance of a healthful lifestyle for Mifflin and Juniata County residents. It is a great opportunity for older adults to have fun, socialize, and stay fit and active regardless of your level of competitiveness.
The 38th Annual Senior Games will be held the week of June 10th! CLICK HERE for a registration form and a full program of events.
