Our Purpose

To encourage an active lifestyle for our elders who are fifty years and better through health related education, providing a fitness program and competition. To educate our elders about the benefits of healthy lifestyles changes that can eliminate/lessen/prevent the causes of chronic illnesses and can improve their overall health and wellness so they can live in a good way. Our vision is to establish a Native Elders team and program at each of the 11 reservations in Minnesota and have an annual/bi-annual Native Elders Game Day or Senior Games where they can socialize and compete against each other.
