Due to the unique environment and diverse culture of Rowlett, some age friendly features exist or have been expanded. The Rowlett Community Centre offers programs for Seniors that incorporate the Social Participation domain through open events, luncheons, programs, and an indoor track. In addition to the program options, within the next few months there will be intergenerational programming to help bridge the gap between Generation Z and the Silent Generation. In addition, the Parks & Recreation Department offers FREE Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) passes for seniors to encourage them to utilize the public transportation system. The City of Rowlett currently offers roughly 10 miles of trails with more on the way. One important component to the trail system is the inclusion of outdoor exercise equipment. Outdoor exercise equipment offers a wonderful alternative to build lean muscle, improve cardiovascular function, and increase energy without the cost of a gym membership or the commitment to an exercise class.
