- Civic Magazine covers the eighth annual Golden Olympics, an event sponsored by Savannah's Golden Age centers and the AARP in which Savannah's senior citizens can participate and compete in a variety of sports and games. Events in the Golden Olympics include football and Frisbee throwing contests, mini golf, and softball.

Civic Magazine interviewed several participants about their experiences in the games.
