Adult 55+ Programs

View our current program listings below.

JBCC Seniors Centre has a program for you! Whether you’re physically active or not, 55 or 85 or anywhere in between, we have programs for adults of all ages and abilities. 

We at JBCC are eager to welcome you and invite you to participate in the many programs and services that are offered.  We encourage you to come to the Centre and talk to us to find out what works best for you.

We have created a wide range of programs with YOU in mind, realizing that every person has different needs, levels of physical and mental wellness and fitness levels.   Not all programs involve physical activities; we have great social events, creative art classes, learning workshops, computer classes, and much more.
