Bishan Active Agers Walk 2009 was held on Sunday, 6 December 2009.
On Sunday morning, about 400 residents, all dressed in their red Active Agers Walk t-shirt, took part in the 2 km walk in the Bishan East estate. This walk is an annual event to celebrate the Active Agers Festival, which aims to widen the seniors’ social circle and encourage them to remain active in their golden years.
The walk was flagged off by Deputy Prime Minister, Mr Wong Kan Seng, after a warm-up exercise session led by the Bishan Community Club Senior Citizens’ Executive Committee Qigong and Morning Walk interest groups. After the walk, residents were invited to breakfast while some joined in the exercise demonstration by the Mutiara group, followed by line dancing.
Here are some photos and video clips of the event:
The gentleman below is incredible. Despite the need of a walking stick, he was game enough to join in the line dance. He may look old but he has a heart of youth!
