Calling all Seniors! Did you know that May 29th is National Health and Fitness Day? Huzzah! 

NEXT will get a jump on the day by celebrating on THURSDAY, MAY 23rd, with a BIG GROUP WALK! 
NEXT is big on fitness and health and the community that develops from coming together to exercise. We'd like to see all of our members and friends come together for one of three different-distance walks in and around Crissy Field.  Walks are 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles. Everyone is welcome.

The event begins at Sports Basement Presidio, 610 Old Mason, near Chrissy Field.
