Our Volunteers Our volunteers help us keep costs of the Newport 60+ Activity Center to a minimum which allows us to provide more trips, classes, and activities for our older population. Without their generous contribution of their time and efforts we could not possibly provide the quality and quantity of services that we do.

In order to recognize these wonderful people who give so much of their time and energy helping us provide the classes and ongoing support to our senior community, we have chosen to recognize them through the Presidential Volunteer Service Awards. Some of them have given enough time and energy to our center that they will be able to obtain the Presidential Lifetime Achievement award complete with a signed letter from President Trump. This award is only available to those individuals who have volunteered over 4,000 hours over the course of their lives!

Fitbit

Since the beginning of our Fitbit Program participants have walked the equivalent of crossing America and back!

monials from Participants:

t makes you aware of the steps you take in a day. It inspires you to get up and move more. It is nice to get together with who have common goals. It is amazing how far we walked as a group! The class was really good. It builds your desire to try to beat your own record every day. It motivates you to go for walks es you goals to go for that you otherwise wouldn’t do. It is a good way to improve yourself. The leadership was good. - The class kept me moving and working to get more exercise in. It was good for me. My kids were enthusiastic about m . The trainers were pleasant and helpful. a-- I liked the encouragement. I do better when I have other people around; I don’t have the self-discipline by myself.

The outcome of this program is the creation of a regular walkin group. It has increased our annual trips by including hikes that a out of area. The primary outcome has been an increase of healt awareness of all individuals attending the Fitbit class. Also, man have accomplished other personal goals that were set in the program. Many new friendships have occurred because of this supportive program.

Demographics and Expected Growth

ording to the 2016 US Census 26.6 % of Lincoln County’s Population is now 65 or older whi ble the national average

ording to pewresearch.org when all members of the Baby Boom generation have reached a ully 18% of the nation will be at least that age.

to the research done by pewresearch.org we can gather that Lincoln County’s population age of 65 may reach roughly 36%.

ral of our classes are now at maximum capacity. Examples of these classes include Hatha Y Silver Sneakers Circuit.

must consider these facts as we look toward meeting the needs of this population in relati city and the services it provides such as the Newport 60+ Activity Center. With regards to t we may need to consider a larger facility and more staff to support the expected populat wth of older Americans to our region.

Advisory Committee

e Newport 60+ Advisory Committee consists of a group of volunteers w eet the 4th Monday of each month to brainstorm ideas to make our cen re efficient and promote the center to maximize growth and sustainabi e to their efforts we have grown and developed into a center that provi vast array of activities that is attractive to our older population, as well increasing our presence in making for a more supportive community. Our current Advisory Committee is made up of: Mike Rickus, Donna Fogarty, Debra Rittenhour, Richard McKinney, Bryn McCormack, Barb LeBoss, and Ann Way City Council Liaison for the Advisory Committee is: Laura Swanson.

The recent survey completed by the Advisory Committee demonstrated a great desire for activities for the 60+ community. The 60+ Activity Center is a valuable resource for those in our community. We offer educational, social and wellness classes and programs. We provide esource information.

The center is seeing a significant growth in our fitness programs and now is facing capacity issues that will continue to increase over time. The Advisory committee is looking for guidance from the council on how o address the demand. Decrease demands by charging for fees Turn people away Find additional space from private or city facility

Other issues facing the 60+ Activity Center Flooding Disabled and General parking needs
