VA Pacific Islands Health Care System: Veteran Sports Challenges

Posted on Sep 11, 2024 in VAPIHCS Veterans

The National Veteran Golden Age Games (NVGAG) will take place in Salt Lake City this year from August 24, 2024, to August 29, 2024. These games are for Veterans who are 55 and older, and are a fun way for our Veterans to stay motivated to be active as they age. VAPIHCS is proud of our Veteran athletes, and we hope they will bring home the gold next week!

The Koa Challenge Veteran Games is our own VAPIHCS sports challenge, and this year it will take place from November 12, 2024, to November 16, 2024. We are currently accepting volunteers to help with logistics during the event. If you would like to volunteer, please speak with Center for Development and Civic Engagement (CDCE) Chief Schoen Safotu at [email protected] or (808) 433-7725. Family, friends, and other spectators are encouraged to attend as well, and a schedule of events and locations will be distributed soon.
