The Senior Games have been part of our
community since 1987 and have grown in popularity over the years. There are now
over 10,000 participants each year and our volunteer force of over 2500 people
supports these athletes as they compete.

As soon as you turn 50, you are eligible to compete in the
games. Many of these competitors bring serious game to the competition. A few
years ago, I listened to some teenagers talking about watching the badminton
competition that was being played at their school. Those teenagers were amazed
at how fast and furious the games that they watched were. When you can impress
a bunch of teenagers with your badminton skills, you've accomplished the near
impossible.
Registration for the 2014 games is now closed but you can
still enjoy being a part of the games whether you are post-50 or pre-50. You
can simply watch the athletes compete and cheer them forward (click for game schedule).
There are still oppportunities to volunteer. You may also enjoy the opening
ceremonies or the free concert that is offered. They are open to all, not just
the athletes, and it is fun to enjoy the energy that all of the athletes bring
to the games.
The opening ceremonies are October 7, 7:00 p.m. at Dixie
State University’s Hansen Stadium. They are FREE and everyone is invited. This
year NBA great, Thurl
Bailey, is the featured guest speaker. He is a fantastic speaker and would
be worth your time to listen to.
The Concert and Celebration is October 14, 7:00 p.m. at
Dixie State University’s Burns Arena. This concert is also FREE and open to
anyone. This year attendees will enjoy a journey back through the 70’s with Jim Witter’s Piano Men.
Our team is ready to help you with any of your real estate needs.
