Discover, Learn, and Connect with SCOA's Classes and Events
At the Saskatoon Council on Aging (SCOA), we understand how important it is to actively nurture our physical, mental and emotional well-being for healthy aging. That's why we're passionate about lifelong learning for older adults. It's about more than just acquiring new skills; it's about staying sharp, finding purpose, and fostering social connections. Just like we work out to keep our bodies fit, our minds need exercise, too.
