Welcome to a world where age is just a number and the fun never stops! The Legends Games, formerly known as the Senior Olympics, is a vibrant showcase of athleticism and community spirit for those aged 50 and up. This episode shines a spotlight on the incredible lives of Scott Schwartz and Roger Scherck, who not only participate in but also help orchestrate these inspiring games. With over 90 events, from swimming to the gentle art of cornhole, the Legends Games demonstrates that competition can be fun, fierce, and fabulous, irrespective of age! We explore the camaraderie among participants, the thrill of competition, and how these games keep the spirit of youth alive in all of us.The Games are in their 48th year and were started by the Jewish Community Center.
