Ten members of the Founders Hall Seniors on the Ball Basketball team ended the year by playing an exhibition game at halftime of the Ridgefield High School varsity basketball game on the evening of Tuesday, December 19th. Part of a group of Founders Hall members aged in their 70s-80s that meets weekly at the Parks and Recreation gym, these men and women exercise, do drills and play on a reduced size court. One member shares, “It offers us a more balanced life!” A terrific, inspiring example of the many ways Founders Hall is fostering friendship and fitness right here in Ridgefield!
Founders Hall was conceived and built by Founders Hall Foundation, Inc., a not-for-profit organization started by the families of Elaine and John Couri and Liz and Steven Goldstone. Their objective was to set a new standard for senior recreation and education by combining a state-of-the-art facility with a caring staff and an exciting curriculum of classes and activities. Founders Hall has more than 3,300 active members and is dedicated to providing a diverse program of social, educational and physical fitness programs for today’s active seniors in a warm, fun and stimulating atmosphere.
