Physical Activity and Aging Volunteers

Just some background..I am a student at Oregon State University studying
Exercise and Sport Science. This quarter I am taking 'Physical Activity and
Aging.' In class we are going to be doing functional assessments in the 65+
population.

I am looking for a couple of volunteers to come to campus so my group can
assess basic mobility, balance, functional testing, etc. This is not a very
vigorous test and can be adjusted according to the fitness level of the
participant.

The tests will be on Tuesday, May 16th from 12:30-2pm. The only requirement
is that you are at least 65 years old. Fitness level will vary, but that is
what we will be testing. If you or anyone you know would like more
information or is interested in helping me with this, please email or call.
Thank you.
