County reminds seniors to take advantage of free Walk and Talk program

The County of Grande Prairie’s seniors are being reminded of their free access to three county facilities as part of the county’s ongoing “Walk and Talk” program.

The Seniors Walk and Talk program has been running since October of last year and is available until May 8th.

County officials say the program was implemented to provide local seniors with the chance to stay fit and connected with the community safely through the colder months.

Walk and Talk programs are available every Tuesday from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. until May 7th at the Bezanson Community Event Centre Gymnasium, and every Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. until May 8th at the track in the Crosslink County Sportsplex.

Participants will receive free access to the facilities, a chance to socialize while staying active, and even a complimentary coffee to enjoy while they walk.
