The Washington State Senior Games, now in its 16th year of running the largest Olympic-style multi-sport event in Washington, will be hosted by the Puget Sound Senior Games in July 2012 at various sites throughout the South Sound. Almost 2,000 participants will take part in the Senior Games this July, and medalists will qualify for the 2013 National Senior Games in Cleveland, Ohio. The Washington State Senior Games is an OPEN state and out-of-state participants are welcome.
The Puget Sound Senior Games is an all-volunteer 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to providing a forum that initiates and encourages camaraderie through athletic competition and the Olympic spirit. The event assists in maintaining a healthy lifestyle and promotes positive healthy activities for the participants, their families and the communities where they live.

Our mission is to promote health and fitness throughout the year for people from 50 years of age to 100+ through participation, competition and education.
We encourage all seniors to get off the couch and exercise your body and your mind. Join us for fun, fellowship and some friendly competition. Sign up with a friend and start training today at your local YMCA, health club, fitness center or in your own home.
