The Lamplighters at the Lighthouse/City YMCA are a social and service group of active older adults. The Lamplighters get together for potlucks and fieldtrips during the fall, winter and spring months. Potlucks are free and open to Lighthouse/City YMCA members and friends. We have interesting speakers at the monthly potlucks, great food and a potluck door prize! Our field trips are fun. We have gone on cookouts to Agua Caliente Park and Mount Lemmon, shopping at the Tanque Verde Swap Meet, and discovering area history at San Xavier Mission and the Arizona Historical Museum. Field trips are $2 or the cost of admission for the location. We host a SilverSneakers Fun Walk as part of our annual 5K Race.
