Active Older Adults

At the Briargate Family Center YMCA, adults of all ages stay active, get involved, and gain a sense of belonging. Whether it’s joining a social club, taking a class or participating in special events, the YMCA provides adults and seniors alike with opportunities to meet people and try new activities.
