One doesn't have to be broadcast on local television to be famous enough to play volleyball at the Hopkins Activity Center! Although senior volleyball player John made his debut on the news this summer that included a surprise visit from sports announcer Mike Max!

We are serving up excitement for adults ages 55+ to stay active with fun and friendly matches held weekly on Monday and Wednesday afternoons. One just has to show up on the court for good-natured, casual play where all skill levels are welcome-no diving or aggressive spiking required!

The Hopkins Activity Center’s Men’s Shed group is bringing good vibes to the Sunset Series Concerts in Downtown Park, serving up JonnyPops popsicles and water to concertgoers.
