Stay active during the holidays

Weight training

Weight trainingThe holidays are near and so are the temptations to eat heavy meals with desserts and to indulge a bit more than usual. We want you to know that this is totally okay, but you should keep in mind to stay active as much as possible. It is difficult with schedules getting busier and the daylight hours getting shorter, so we recommend that anyone in the Daytona Beach area to check out the City of Daytona Beach’s Leisure Services that includes four recreation centers.

  • John H. Dickerson Community Center at 308 South Dr. Martin Luther King Blvd
  • Midtown Cultural and Educational Center 925 George W. Engram Blvd
  • Peggy Schnebly Recreation Center 1101 North Atlantic Ave
  • Yvonne Scarlett Golden Cultural and Educational Center at 1000 Vine St

The recreation centers offer everything from ballroom dancing, hula, arts and crafts, cardio drumming, “Seniorcise” and yoga programs for those over the age of 55. The Senior Oasis Program that the centers offer provide unique activities with a small field trip on the third Thursday of each month.
If you would like to know more, you can call the Leisure Services Department at 386-210-7690 or go to their website at City of Daytona Leisure Services.
