The organizers and volunteers of the Huntsman World Senior Games are busy preparing for the upcoming Games.

As Mayor of the City of St. George, I personally get excited when I’m asked to officially invite you to be our guests in mid October each year! The Senior Games are one of St. George’s favorite events.

October in St. George and the surrounding area is one of the best times of the year to visit. Be sure to plan for some extra time for sightseeing while you are here, and of course, there are wonderful shopping opportunities in our Historic Downtown and outlying centers.

A couple of years ago I reached the age to participate and I am so inspired as I watch you all and marvel at how fit, healthy and happy you are. Keep in shape so you can return year after year as so many of the Games' participants do!
