We here at the San Diego Senior Olympic Games would like to take this time to thank all of our sponsors, supporters, athletes, commissioners and support staff for a great 2011 Senior Games. On behalf of Dr. Lee Rice and our board of directors to wish each and every one of you and your families a Very HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Your commitment to carry on active, healthy and vigorous lives inspires all who know you. 2012 marks our Silver Anniversary and I hope to see you and many more active adults over 50 participating.

Age of Champions is the uplifting story of a group of athletes—a 100-year-old tennis champion, 86-year-old pole vaulter, swimming brothers, and team of basketball grandmothers—all chasing gold at the National Senior Games. The film captures the triumphant spirit of these competitors as they tackle the challenges of old age with grace, humor, and optimism. Win or lose, they inspire us all to follow our dreams and find purpose at any stage of life.
