Wyoming Seniors on the Go

Today begins the first of many walks sponsored through the Wyoming Senior Center in Wyoming, MI. The walk today is being held in Pinery Park and a schedule for all future walks is available at the Senior Center.

Walking is one of the best ways of getting exercise and meeting new people. The walks are geared at a leisurely pace and are low–impact. What a great way to get out and about to enjoy Mother Nature and enjoy the company of others.

All walks take place every Wednesday morning at 9:00am beginning April 18th and running until September 26th. Meet at the Wyoming Senior Center or the designated place on the schedule each week.

Racing on a Budget

Have you ever wanted to go to a NASCAR race at Michigan International Raceway or Chicagoland Speedway? Don't have the time or money for those places? I am going to let you in on a little secret and it is right here in Grand Rapid's back yard. It is the ARCA race each July at the Berlin raceway. What is ARCA you ask. ARCA which stands for Automobile Racing Club Of America. It a stock car series with cars that resemble NASCAR cars. In fact most of the cars used in this series are former NASCAR cars. The drivers are a very diverse group of races from young divers trying to make a name for themselves to current NASCAR Camping World Truck series drivers to sons and grandsons of NASCAR drivers and owners to the ageless 76 year old 1966 NASCAR rookie of the year James Hylton.
