There are so many activities for Active 55+ in Apex.  Most of the Classes, Luncheons and Events take place at the Community Center on Hunter Street.  The Villages of Apex is located less than a mile from the Center, and home owners enjoy being just a few minutes away from the Fun! (there’s a map at the bottom of this showing how close we are!)
