The 2010 McDowell Senior Games/SilverArts began on April 21st “We would love to have you come out and join us for the fun, fellowship, and friendly competition.” Games coordinator, Cheryl Woody, says she hopes that more seniors will sign up for the 2010 games. The games offer horseshoes, shuffleboard, bocce, croquet, track and field events and bowling just to name a few. There is also an option to enter the SilverArts. This division of McDowell Senior Games includes Heritage Arts (needle work, woodcarving, knitting and other crafts); Visual (photography, painting, and more); Literary (essays, life experiences, short stories and poetry); and the Performing Arts (Vocal, instrumental, dance, comedy, and drama) showcased during the Senior Games Follies on April 29th at the McDowell County Senior Center. Our county has many skilled artists who could enter their artwork into McDowell Senior Games. The rules and regulations are included in the registration form.
