MY Denver PRIME Card – Free Recreation Center & Pool Access For Seniors
I am so excited about this new program for older adults who live in Denver. Who says, kids should get all the fun… and perks? For several years, children with a MY Denver Card have breezed into Denver’s rec centers and pools without paying a dime. Now comes MY Denver PRIME, a brand new program that provides FREE access to 28 recreation centers and 31 pools to Denver residents 60 and older.
Let’s face it. Health club memberships can be expensive, and while Denver Recreation Centers are more affordable, they remain out-of-reach for many on a budget. That’s a shame, because staying active is the best way to keep both body and mind healthy. Plus, fitness classes and clubs offered at the recreation centers are a great way to make new friends and widen your social circle. MY Denver PRIME launched January 1, 2018.
