Senior Citizen Nutritional Workshops were held on Nov. 2 and Nov. 16 at the Queen Mary in Long Beach. Approximately 175 senior residents from various HACLA sites participated in the workshop, which included health tips and resources for healthy lifestyle. A certified nutritionist spoke about the importance of healthy eating, reading food labels, counting calories and adding healthy food to diets. The importance of light daily exercise was also discussed.
Housing Services Director Sanford Riggs addressed the seniors and talked to them about the importance of the workshop and the Housing Authority efforts to provide resources for the residents.
After the workshop, the seniors took a walking fitness tour of the Queen Mary, learned about the historical importance of the ship from a guide.
