Around Green Valley
One of the unique aspects of Green Valley, Arizona is the recreation
facilities and activites provided by Green Valley Recreation, or
GVR. For over 25 years, GVR has provided facilities, events,
activities, and publicity of these, to make Green Valley a unique spot
in the world for active seniors.
The twelve (and growing) GVR facilities are spread throughout Green
Valley. Each one has a swimming pool and other
facilities. These other facilities range from meeting
rooms, card rooms, billiards, shuffleboard, tennis courts, to fully
outfitted craft shops. (Craft shops include a Woodshop,
Silversmith shop, Lapidary, Ceramics and more.) GVR is truly a
fantastic organization!
