Marianne champions science with
Senior Fit Day
Marianne leads an annual community outreach event for the Department of Kinesiology. During Senior Fit Day, Kinesiology students assess the physical fitness of older adult volunteers under the direction of a physiotherapist. Students get to put their knowledge and skills to work while community volunteers learn more about fitness in a fun and supportive environment.
Participating in community outreach and engagement is a vital opportunity to not only share what has been learned but to also learn what needs to be shared.
