In-Person Wellness Classes Resume

LifeStream was pleased to welcome participants back to in-person wellness classes this year. Since September 2021, we have been able to offer nine different evidence-based programs throughout our service area. These programs make an impact; participants increase their strength, flexibility, and stamina, reduce their fear and risk of falls, and improve their overall health.

JOY Games

The JOY Games – Just Older Youth – is an annual event aimed at keeping older adults active while promoting socialization. This year’s JOY Games welcomed ninety-seven participants and eight sponsor organizations to the three-day event in Richmond. Day one included activities such as chair volleyball, ping pong, billiards, Euchre, and Bingo at the Richmond Senior Center. Day two featured a Pickleball tournament at Clear Creek Park, and day three wrapped up the Games with the “Brats and Brews” Golf Scramble at Highland Lake Golf Course.

LifeStream Employee Wellness Challenges

Wellness at LifeStream extends to our employees, too! Our staff has been making positive strides, improving their own health while helping others live independently. Nearly half of our employees participated in wellness challenges to maintain their weight and achieve fitness goals. Staying active and making healthy food choices is not just a goal we’re striving to meet for our clients, but for our employees as well.
