The Active Living Center at the YMCA is a community gathering place - for all ages. The ALC is a multi-purpose space for recreation, socialization and education. The Active Living Center is FREE and open to the public in partnership with the YMCA, ElderCircle and the City of Grand Rapids.
Programming in the Active Living Center is geared to our seniors. Look for traditional senior activites such as bingo and cribbage, along with fresh, new activities like Wii bowling! We hope to encourage area seniors to pursue active, meaningful and healthy lives. We invite you to share your talents and interests, and we are always open to your suggestions for new programming.
Stop by for coffee and conversation or join in on the daily activities. Please see current schedule for this month's activities. The ALC is open YMCA hours.
Please consider contributing to the Active Living Center. Your donation helps us to provide coffee, snacks, and programming for a lively, involved community center here at the ALC.

Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in America for those 55+ years of age! It is easy for beginners to learn, but can develop into a quick, fast-paced competitive game for experienced players. Join us in the gymnasium Monday through Saturday mornings to learn more.
