Prairie Grove Senior Activity & Wellness Center has lots planned for the month of May.
May is Older American Month and senior adults are encouraged to stop by the center to see what is going on and to enjoy a hot meal.
The annual Speedy Skunk Run will be held starting at 7:30 a.m., Saturday, May 21 at Prairie Grove Battlefield State Park. Proceeds benefit the senior center and volunteers are needed to help hand out refreshments to runners. Report to the Battlefield State Park at 7 a.m.
Ongoing activities at the center are blood pressure checks every Friday and various opportunities to play cards, dominoes and Bingo.
Exercise classes include the PEPPI workout 8:30-9:30 a.m., Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The exercise room is open 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday-Friday and the Tiger Trail behind the center is a one-fourth mile walking track to enjoy, weather permitting. A group of walkers starts at 9 a.m. each day for exercise.
Other events in May are a trip to Fayetteville Botanical Garden on Monday, May 9 and handcrafts and quilting at 6 p.m. May 10 and May 24. Bingo is played at 10 a.m. on Fridays.
