Episode Details

A beloved water aerobics class for seniors at Washington Park, led by volunteer Erick Johnson for years, is in jeopardy again—this time with a partial solution. Once a daily staple for up to 60 seniors battling arthritis, recovering from surgery, and craving community, the class was shut down by the Park District for lacking certified staff. After outcry and negotiations, a three-day-a-week version returned—but with no guarantee it’ll stick around. With lifeguard shortages and staffing constraints, seniors are left in limbo, hoping for more than just a temporary fix.
