Recreation Activities
Leisure and recreation activities are another favorite pastime. During programming hours, the individuals work on our Breakout sessions, which includes arts/craft projects, music, entertainment, games, outings, sports, etc.
Staff offer Breakout sessions and within these sessions, individuals can participant in any activity offered such as taking neighborhood walks, "Women's", "Men's" group or with our SHAPE Instructor - which mainly concentrates on health and fitness. Breakout sessions meet on a regular basis, have official memberships and plan their own agendas and activities. Seasonal and holiday parties are always exciting events. Individuals create special artwork and decorations related to a party's theme. On bad weather days, individuals can choose a video for an afternoon at the movies, a zoo tour, music trivia, pictionary, or go to the gym, etc. In addition, there is an on-site gym with basketball hoop for indoor physical activities. We also have weekly music classes which individuals can play a variety of different instruments and sing-a-long to their favorite tunes! Twice a month, FlexAbility leads an exercise which pertains to the seasons, a sporting event or an outdoor exercise in the sun!
Getting out of the facility for bowling, a Twins day game, Como Zoo, or the State Fair becomes an exciting option for us. Our close proximity to Minnehaha Park enables us to enjoy outdoor settings for program activities. We also have our own yard games including bean bag toss, kick ball, soccer, catch, and croquet. Having fun and laughing are important parts of the day for participants in our recreation and leisure program.
