Across the country, Winter Storm Fern grounded flights, cancelled flights, and closed schools. But it wasn’t enough to prevent residents at an Idaho senior living community from enjoying a snowball fight. Proving that age is just a number.

East Idaho News visited Homestead Senior Living, where residents and staff armed with soft faux snowballs exchanged strikes. According to the article, the activity sparked friendly competition, encouraged movement, and most importantly, strengthened the bonds between the residents and the employees. It was a fun way to work in some physical fitness into an otherwise boring snow day.

Council of Seniors Wants to Support Older Americans

The Council of Seniors strives to help seniors stay physically and financially fit.

We are working diligently to get Congress to passThe SAVE Benefits Act. This crucial bill will put $581 back in retirees’ pockets to make up for Social Security cost-of-living adjustments that were far too low for years.

Sign our petition today to support our efforts. Congress has ignored the growing number of seniors expecting action for way too long.
