Century Club

The Saskatchewan Century Club is an association of seniors who have reached the age of 90 years and are determined to continue living in as full and active a style as possible to the age of 100 and beyond. This type of life-style includes a variety of aspects to the term  "active", such as: Physical, Mental, Social, Spiritual and Creative.

None of these are exclusive, each may have limitations, but the goal in each case is to do one's own best.
The club provides a network for nonagenarians who wish to establish new friendships  and provide mutual support. Members hope, through example, to demonstrate the value of  living for 100 years or more. Member benefits include: motivation to  keep active, healthy and involved in the community; opportunities, through support and  example, to to encourage others to lead healthy, active lives; special recognition and  celebration at the age of 100 years; opportunities to keep in touch with other active Saskatchewan  seniors.

The Saskatchewan Century Club was the "brainchild" of the late Dr. WM Riddell,  the "father" of the University of Regina. The concept is being carried forward  under the leadership of Ken Mitchell.

A tea was hosted by the Lieutenant-Governor, Lynda Haverstock, on the opening day of Seniors Week 2003, to honor the centurions. We are currently in the process of organizing a gathering  for centurions to meet, visit and share stories with one another. We have dedicated a page in Gray Matters to tell the stories of these centurions.  We are looking for funds to cover the cost of administration including an up-to-date data base  which will be a resource for government agencies.
