ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - The St. Petersburg Parks and Recreation Department is celebrating older adults this week and is using the next several days to bring awareness and opportunities for local seniors.

On Sunday the "Senior Fit Fair" kicked off at the Azalea Recreation Center. This is the first time the city has dedicated an experience for seniors.

"We need to get up and move, also were going to have various food demonstrations, as well as some dance and yoga and that type of demonstrations also here," said Lucinda Grant, the recreation manager.

Heres the schedule for the rest of the week:
