Help Us Celebrate
The 20th Edition
Of Our Games

Welcome to the 2012 Northwest La. District Senior Olympics website where you will find all the information you need to join us in the fun and games we have produced for 20 seasons.

Our commitment is to bring to our area an annual event promoting fitness and wellness and a vibrant lifestyle for seniors, encouraging competition amid fellowship and fun with their peers, to foster healthy aging. Our activities are developed to be good for the body and great for the spirit.

Some of our activities require training and a degree of endurance so we strongly suggest that you consult your health care provider before embarking on training or participation for those.

As one of 10 regions of the LSOG, the state association, we act as a qualifying event for state competition in golf, dance team, bowling singles horseshoes, table tennis, discus, javelin, shot put, and shuffleboard.

We hope you enjoy reading about our participants and activities and will have the information you need to COME JOIN OUR FUN!
