Education

SunRiver EducationLearn about all the things you never had time for. In addition to the classes and activities provided at the SunRiver St. George Community Center, St. George is home to many other institutions of learning. Residents are especially enthusiastic about the opportunities offered by Dixie State College through its Institute for Continued Learning (ICL). For a small annual fee, currently about $40, you can attend classes ranging from Geology and Utah History to Broadway Musicals and Birdwatching, go on 4-wheel drive outings, participate in ICL-sponsored hikes and field trips, and enjoy several social events during the year. In addition, many residents have discovered the Zion Canyon Field Institute at nearby Zion National Park, where an intriguing range of 1, 2, and 3-day classes are offered focusing on wildlife, geology, botany, landscape photography, and regional history. And closer to home, the St. George Senior Center offers classes that often supplement those available right here in SunRiver. Clearly, at SunRiver St. George, our “active adults” are exercising both mind and body.
