What’s the secret to a happy, active retirement? For over 50 years, the members of Ridgewood’s H.I.L.T. (Highlights in Leisure Time) senior club have found the answer right in their community. The club recently celebrated its 50th anniversary at Village Hall, bringing together more than 50 seniors for a special celebration.
The milestone event was filled with a festive atmosphere, including a delicious pizza lunch, a celebratory cake, and remarks from Mayor Paul Vagianos. The highlight of the day, however, was a special presentation by Danielle Caputo from the Ridgewood Health Department.
Introducing the ‘1 Million Minutes of Wellness Challenge’
To mark the occasion, Danielle Caputo introduced the new “1 Million Minutes of Wellness Challenge.” This exciting initiative, which runs from September 13 through December 5, is designed to get the entire community—all ages and abilities—moving and feeling great.
The challenge is simple: log your minutes of physical activity, whether it’s walking, gardening, swimming, or even dancing. Every minute counts! By participating, you’re not only improving your own health, but you’re also helping Ridgewood reach a collective goal of one million minutes of wellness. Plus, there are prizes up for grabs!
The H.I.L.T. celebration was a perfect example of how Ridgewood prioritizes its seniors and promotes an active lifestyle. This event beautifully combined a tribute to the past with an exciting look toward a healthier future for everyone in the village.
