“Healthy aging is about staying active, connected, and informed” said Tim Blenco, chief operating officer at the YMCA of WNC. “At the Y, we’re proud to offer programs and events that empower older adults to thrive physically, mentally, and socially. Healthy Aging Day is a great opportunity to explore those resources and connect with others in the community.”

Healthy Aging Day takes place Friday, Sept. 5 from 10 a.m.-1 p.m. at the Reuter Family YMCA in Biltmore Park. The event is presented by Hopscotch Primary Care.
