Sunshine and Seniors: Why Getting Outdoors Matters 

Remember playing outside when you were child, maybe attending summer camp and meeting nature up close? Running barefoot, chasing fireflies, lying in the grass…it just felt so good. Fast forward to today: the benefits of getting outdoors for older adults are just as plentiful and maybe even more important…and can be just as much fun!
