CHERRY HILL, NJ (CBS) -- Camden County is offering several free programs for seniors this summer, including lessons in golf, pickleball and bocce ball.

Dominic Vesper Sr. volunteers as a bocce ball instructor for the county. 

"You don't have to be an athlete; you don't have to be a big guy; you don't have to be muscular; it's just a lot of fun," Vesper said. "To get out of the house, to do something, move around and just be together.

Former county commissioner Joseph Borregine, 94, enjoys participating in the county's programs for seniors.

"The socializing and meeting new people, making new friends when you're older," Borregine said. "They just go together."
