BRAINTREE — Mayor Charles C. Kokoros and the Braintree Department of Elder Affairs are pleased to announce two upcoming events this month for seniors in the community.

This year the Braintree Department of Elder Affairs will be hosting Senior Health and Fitness Week from Oct. 13 to Oct. 20. Events will be held Tuesday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

All events during Senior Health and Fitness Week will take place outdoors at the Braintree Council on Aging, located at 71 Cleveland Ave.

“The Department of Elder Affairs, throughout this pandemic, has continued to step out of the box to create programs and offer services for the older adults of our community,” said Sharmila Biswas, the Director of Elder Affairs. “This will be a wonderful opportunity for our older adults to spend time outdoors with friends, while maintaining all the COVID-19 safety protocols.” 

Events for Senior Health and Fitness Week include cardio strength and flexibility classes, classes on healthy food preparation, outdoor walks and live entertainment. For a full list of the week’s events, click here.

All events are free and open to Braintree seniors, but donations will be accepted.

“We are extremely excited to be able to host Senior Health and Fitness Week in place of our annual Pond Meadow Senior Walk this year,” Mayor Kokoros said. “Sharmila and the Department of Elder Affairs staff continue to do a great job of planning these activities and programs for residents to enjoy.”

The Braintree Department of Elder Affairs will also be hosting an outdoor bingo event on Wednesday, Oct. 20 at 10 a.m. Outdoor bingo will be held at the Braintree Council on Aging, 71 Cleveland Ave.

In compliance with social distancing and COVID-19 regulations, guests are encouraged to begin seating themselves outdoors at 9:30 a.m. prior to the event.
