East Montgomery

East Montgomery—including neighborhoods such as Cloverdale and Woodmere—provides ArchWell Health members with access to wellness workshops, neighborhood walks, and county-supported senior programs in convenient community settings. The new ArchWell Health East Montgomery center offers personalized care coordination and referrals to nearby health, fitness, and social programming.

Start your day outdoors with the Montgomery Explorers walking club, which meets weekly for gentle outdoor walks across city parks and trails. Open to ages 55+, this group offers structured social movement in peaceful green spaces. Nearby, Wright Brothers Park overlooks the Alabama River with paved paths, picnic shelters, benches, and shaded riverfront views—perfect for serene strolls or social breaks.

In the Cloverdale historic area, older adults can enjoy walking leafy streets and gardens—including visible highlights at Cloverdale Park, Fitzgerald Park, and Milo Howard Park—all embedded in one of Alabama’s oldest garden‑landscaped neighborhoods.

For organized social programming, the Archibald Senior Center (operated by MACOA at 115 E Jefferson St) offers chair exercise, line dancing, arts and crafts, bingo, themed luncheons, wellness talks, computer sessions, and trips. It serves Montgomery residents throughout the week with transportation assistance available.

Support services are coordinated by the Montgomery Area Council on Aging (MACOA), which provides meals-on-wheels delivery, benefit counseling, transportation support, health outreach, and neighborhood programming hosted at community venues like local churches and rec hubs.

Whether it's taking a shaded walk, joining a friendly lunch, participating in wellness classes, or exploring small historic parks, East Montgomery helps older adults live well with accessible movement, learning, and community connection.
