.@DCDPR’s Senior Division is kicking off December in full Holiday Spirit! Jingle Jam is underway at the Chevy Chase recreation center featuring DPR’s very own Shirleta Settles. Good to have a full house at this special event.
It’s our 1st @DCDPR intergenerational cruise— one of many intergenerational events we hold to bridge the gap between our youth & seniors. We’re out on @SpiritCruises ‘Spirit of Baltimore.’ Looks like our seniors are showing our teens how it’s done! 💃🏾🕺🏾
My baby girl is starting volleyball with the best of the best, Coach @Janee_Hayes at @SpikedCityDC. Check out Spiked City. We’re working on getting her into some @DCDPR centers soon. https://t.co/05dKugJgwv
Mr. Nevitt swims 50 Backstroke tomorrow (Sunday 9/18) at 930a. Come out and support him, our @dcdpr Water Wizards & all the other teams entered in the Senior Games swim meet.
Nevitt Greene is 74 & lives in Petworth. It’s his first time competing in the @DCDPR#DCSeniorGames. He swam the 50 breaststroke today and shared his inspiring testimony about battling cancer and the power of our Parks & Recreation community sports programs.

Ring #AlwaysHome okay @FedExPolicy@FedEx@FedExHelp this is how my moms package was delivered. She thought it was stolen. Can we get to the bottom of this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. https://t.co/EQ50WKApvo
Really happy to see a resource like this *inside* the city. Equity is important. DC parents shouldn’t have to drive kids to Ashburn or Olney to participate in a sport at a competitive level.
Great book. Reading everything this man went to try to overcome the systemic, persistent racism working to pin him down was not surprising but still mind boggling. This bit of “past”isn’t too far from the present. Found it at @chbooksdc. Thanks @BPoehler for telling his story.
A great week for our senior division @DCDPR. Lots of activities but an especially high point for me was our Mother’s Day celebration where we recognized DC’s centenarian mothers. These incredible women represent the soul of our city & are part of why I love what I do. #MothersDay
Thanks @delanohunter. There’s something for everyone in our Seniors’ programming this Spring. We’re excited to emerge from the pandemic stronger than ever w/ @DCDPR special events & programs to engage our Senior athletes, gamers, & 💃🕺 fans alike this 2022 & beyond. Stay tuned!
Thank you @fox5dc and @MatthewCappucci for highlighting @DCDPR ‘s Line Dancing program. We are exciting to re-engage our seniors in-person. From Senior Fest to pickleball to water aerobics, we can’t wait!
Thanks for sharing, Nichole. Stacey Stewart put it exactly right— if you’re committed, sports can take you anywhere. I’m proof. @sportsmomfdtn, I’d love to connect sometime!
Excited about the work that the @sportsmomfdtn will do to educate, expose, prepare, and position girl student-athletes across the country for success!! Kudos to Stacey Stewart @MarchofDimesCEO for her vision and leadership! https://t.co/kaBu9GmtNz
This is a great memory. It was June of 2012 when my 6th grade Maryland Lady Hoopsters won a U.S. Junior National Championship. Many of these girls went on to play on scholarship at @GatorsSR & @HolyChildTigers. A few weeks ago my daughter’s teacher said she recognized some faces.
