[August 07, 2023]  Friday August 4th was Senior Day at the Logan County Fair. The Christian Village in Lincoln provided free gate admission and parking throughout the day for those 65 and older.

A full day of activities was planned.

Silver Fox Fitness with Georgia Allison was at 9:30 a.m., bingo from 10:30 a.m. to noon, The FORG (Four Old Retired Guys) Barbershop Quartet was from noon to 2 p.m. and Swing Dance & Lesson was offered from 6:30 p.m. to 10 p.m.



The sponsors of the day’s events included Castle Manor, The Christian Village, Copper Creek Cottages, Transitions Hospice, Gentiva Hospice, Silver Fox Fitness, Young Dance Inc., St. Clara’s Manor, The Oasis Senior Center, Traditions Health, Vonderlieth Living Center, Senior Services of Central Illinois and Lincoln Village Healthcare Center.



What may have been the hottest day of the fair seemed quite comfortable at the Lincoln Stage and the crowd this year was a lot larger than last year.



The 9:30 a.m. Silver Fox Fitness program was led by Georgia Allison. Georgia has led these programs for a number of years at the Oasis Senior Center in Lincoln.

On Friday, she led a group of seniors through exercises that stretch, tone and improve range of motion. Even younger families floated through the room joined in and had a good time.
