Signing up for a class
Now in its third year, the Expo offers a chance to browse options and speak directly with organizers from over two dozen programs and classes offered through the Piedmont Recreation Department, Piedmont Adult School, and other local programming providers, all under a single roof. Representatives of civic, educational, and cultural organizations like the League of Women Voters, Piedmont Arts, and Piedmont Beautification Foundation will be on hand as well, sharing information about their work and how you can get involved.
A full list of participating organizations and featured activities is available at piedmont.ca.gov/AdultRecExpo.
Volunteer-driven Expo addresses need identified through Recreation Commission work
The Adult Recreation Expo grew from the work of a Recreation Commission subcommittee on older adult programming. After reviewing existing activities throughout Piedmont, as well as nearly 500 responses to a community survey, the subcommittee identified lack of knowledge about existing opportunities as a primary barrier to connecting adults with the activities they were interested in. The Expo hopes to bridge this gap.
The Adult Recreation Expo is made possible through the initiative of volunteers Dick Carter and Lisa Gardner.
