The AARP Pickleball Clinic Tour came to Barney Park in Helena, Montana last August. We were excited to offer Helenans a chance to learn and to play this popular sport! The clinic consisted of an on-court guided session with licensed instructors and focused on warm up, basic technique, skills building, and game play for players of all levels. Afterward, participants had the chance to put into practice what they just learned with an open-play session guided by the professionals.

A new AARP survey, released in conjunction with Social Security’s 90th anniversary, confirms that Americans highly value Social Security, and even more so than five years ago. The vast majority of Americans – 95% of Republicans, 98% of Democrats, and 93% of Independents – consider Social Security vital to the financial security of all Americans, and 67% believe it is even more important for retirees than it was five years ago.

New 90th anniversary report builds on AARP’s long-standing public opinion research on Social Security and examines how views have changed since 2005 on Social Security’s role in retirement, its importance to future generations, and the barriers Americans face in saving for retirement.

Last fall, AARP New Hampshire officially intervened in the Eversource rate case. AARP New Hampshire has 212,000 members statewide, primarily age 50 and older, and 86% live within the Eversource provider area. AARP filed alternative recommendations in the proceeding.
