Hoffman Estates launches free WITS Workout classes to boost memory and social connections
The Village of Hoffman Estates is excited to announce the introduction of the WITS Workout program, aimed at enhancing memory and cognitive function among residents. This research-based initiative, developed by the University of Illinois, focuses on engaging participants through intellectual challenges such as brain games, word searches, and puzzles. These activities not only stimulate the mind but also foster social connections, both of which are vital for maintaining brain health.

WITS Workout classes will be held for free on the third Thursday of each month, with the upcoming sessions scheduled for January 16th and February 20th at 10 AM in the Alexa room. Residents are encouraged to reserve their spots by calling 847-781-4850.

In addition to the WITS Workout, the senior commission is hosting a movie and snack event on Wednesday, January 15th, at 11 AM. Those interested in attending can register or seek more information by contacting Halle at 847-781-2606.

These programs reflect the Village's commitment to promoting health and wellness among its residents, particularly seniors, as they navigate the challenges of aging. The community is invited to participate in these engaging activities and start the new year on a positive note.
