ry Pla Celebrating Seniors (NAPSA)—Active seniors wanted. That’s the message being spread as nearly 7,000 senior athletes from more than 40 countries are expected to show “they got game” in St. George, Utah in October. Silver Gets The Gold—Every year, thousands of seniors compete and socialize at the World Senior Games. The athletes will participate in the Huntsman World Senior Games, an international competition for athletes age 50 and better at all skill levels. The Games offer 22 different individual and team sporting events, healthy lifestyle lectures and nine free health screenings. Approximately 70 percent of the competitors return year after year to compete and socialize with friends. This year’s attendees will also have the opportunity to see one of the world’s most beautiful park regions, including Zion, Bryce, Cedar Breaks and the Grand Canyon. The motto of this year’s games is “Live the Dream” and it’s underscored by the inspiring stories of athletes, many of whom have overcome daunting obstacles to live fully.
