On Friday, May 19th, senior citizens from five East Kentucky counties gathered at the downstream area in Jenny Wiley State Resort Park for the annual Big Sandy Senior Games. Contestants over the age of 50 were participating in various games such as basketball, archery, horseshoes and more. This is the first time the event has taken place since the pandemic. This is a big event and to me it's not really spring until this happens. I look so forward to this every year. This is for people who are 50, 50 years old and up and I've had people's in their nineties here doing softball thorough. It's a big thing. It reminds me of the Olympics. They come from all their different centers and they arrive in their vans and when they get off there they're ready to compete. And I just so enjoy being around them and watching them and talking to them. It's great. Goble says this is a great way for seniors in the area to get some sun and exercise while having fun. Jenny Wiley State Resort Park is responsible for providing the necessary resources to have this event. The main thing is to get people out, show them that they can still do the things that they used to do when they were young. I talked to a guy there who used to be a catcher and he was throwing and he hadn't thrown in years. But they're really from their youth. They're out here, they're walking, they're racing, they're throwing, they're participating in all these events. They see that they can still do things. I'm not sure of the exact years. It's been 30 years that we've been doing it here and Jenny Wiley always participates and they provide the background for all this plus a lot of other things you don't see. They're in here digging, helping to put this on. And we have people from five counties that come together this one day of the year and it's just a big deal. It's a big deal for these people.
