Davie Senior Games continues to grow, and it is being recognized.

The N.C. Senior Games awarded Davie County the “Thrived in Five” award, signifying a 10 percent or higher growth in numbers of games participants in the last five years.

The award was accepted by Carrie Miller, Davie Senior Games coordinator, who also spoke at the Jan. 11-12 local directors conference in Atlantic Beach. She gave a presentation on publicity and marketing.

“Davie County Senior Services is excited about the upcoming 30th season of Davie County Senior Games,” Miller said.

“This year, senior services is encouraging every resident of Davie County who is 50 years or better to please come out and join the Senior Games program. There is something fun for everyone to become involved in – from sewing to shuffleboard,” she said.
