SAS bikers stop for lunch in Montello
Sports for Active Seniors is an organization based in Madison, Wisconsin for people 55 and up who want to participate in active, noncompetitive sports in a social setting.
It is our history, our desire, and hopefully our practice, to make newcomers feel welcome. You will not be a stranger very long.
We have about 150 members and 10 sports. Each sport is organized by the participants, with volunteer leaders.
People over the age of 55 interested in actively participating in sports are invited to join us.
Try us out! Join if you like what you see!

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!! More volunteers mean more fun, more ideas and less work for everyone.
Board members are needed to handle Archives and Publicity.

2.) PUBLICITY: Provides publicity for sports activities, meetings and special events. Sends press releases to appropriate newspapers and TV/Radio stations.

ACTIVITY LEADERS: Co-leaders are still needed for Bocce, Camping, Downhill Skiing, Ice Skating, Mall Walking and Outdoor walking.
Out of town activities been very successful in 2018. In an effort to make it easier to car pool, find over night accommodations, and roommates, it is recommended that meetings for interested individuals be held in advance.
