As Sophia Loren says, there is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap into this source, you have truly defeated age.

And isn't this what we reach for in every edition of Ballarat Seniors magazine? This issue provides some food for thought on retirement, a touching reflection on being a grandparent, and a new craft activity and recipe to try.

You can also discover what's happening at Ballarat Neighbourhood Centre, meet the 96 year-old who tried out the new exercise equipment at Mount Pleasant Reserve, and challenge your family in the mega quiz and spring-inspired IQ test.

Good luck - you know it's not a good look for the grandkids to get a higher score than you do.
