SENIORS D I R E C T O R Y Being a senior in Burnaby is to be a lucky person. Why? Well, because in this city, there are countless opportunities for seniors to get involved, to share, to play and to get the information they need to thrive. In this city you can get out and enjoy great activities every single day, whether it’s dancing, learning about computers, brushing up on a second language or playing a little bridge. But it’s also a place where you can get help if you need it.

Hopefully, the Burnaby NewsLeader’s Spring 2012 Seniors Directory can serve as a resource to help you stay connected. It offers a list of services and resources as diverse as the city of Burnaby itself. This directory is designed to provide an easy-access list of helpful resources, the kind of thing you can keep by the phone for quick reference. The NewsLeader thanks Citizen Support Services for its cooperation in providing information for this publication, and encourages readers to also see CCS’s own guide, Burnaby Seniors Resource Guide, which will be publishing its 17th edition this summer and will be found at the city’s seniors centres (Edmonds, Confederation, Cameron and Bonsor) at local libraries, and on the City of Burnaby’s website (www.burnaby.ca). Meantime, we hope you enjoy the NewsLeader’s Seniors Directory, and find it to be a valuable resource.

If you have reached that â&#x20AC;&#x153;certainâ&#x20AC;? age, (55 is the new 35, some say!), Burnaby has four centres dedicated to you. Home to the upcoming BC Seniors Games in 2012, these centres are great spots to meet new friends, take dance and art classes, sing karaoke, sample great food during restaurant outings, and generally have a blast with a fascinating and friendly mix of people. As for staying active, see if anyone can keep up while you join in on exercise classes, table tennis, snooker, bridge, carpet bowling, yoga, badminton, floor curling and much more. In addition, there are bus trips around the lower mainland and beyond, along with drop-in activities, special events, volunteer opportunities, health resources and support groups. Drop by one of our centres today to pick up a Leisure Guide for a full listing of activities and classes you can take part in or visit us online at burnaby.ca/active. With all these exciting opportunities, the only problem will be... which one to choose!
