Long Beach Senior Arts Colony: Will They Win Again?

EngAGE Senior Olympics team members from the Long Beach Senior Arts Colony hope to hold on to their Championship Trophy for the third year in a row! The 15-member team won the award at the 2015 Senior Olympics which had over 300 seniors from across southern California competing in the full day event. The LBSAC team competed for the first time in 2014 in this annual athletic and artistic competition, and won their first time out.  These Long Beach seniors, aged 57 to 85, beat out 25 other teams, scoring the most gold medals from field events, performance, and art. Training is now underway for the 2016 Senior Olympics to be held at Cerritos Park East on Saturday, September 24th. Will they win again?
