Your Information Source for Community Activities on the South Shore
As September arrives, we welcome the return of fall and the opportunity to reconnect with our community. This edition of The Advisor features a wide range of activities, programs, resources, and community events focused on connection and wellness.
We are excited to welcome everyone back to our Senior Wellness Activities in Chambly, Clarenceville, and Greenfield Park. This month’s activities include cooking, virtual travel, music, podcasts, yoga, and more. These programs offer opportunities to stay active, try something new, meet others, and enjoy meaningful time together.
There are also plenty of opportunities for families and community members to get together this fall. From our Family Wellness Saturday featuring an introduction to geocaching, to the Military Family Welcome Party in St-Jean, there are opportunities for people to connect, discover local resources, and enjoy time together. See page 5 for more details.
Our Greenfield Park programming includes our French conversation club, cooking demonstration, crafting activity, digital skills workshop, gentle yoga, drawing, Qigong, and walking group. Consult our Greenfield Park activity calendar on page 4 for more information.
For caregivers, Caregivers Café returns this fall with a new season of guest experts, practical information, resources, and meaningful conversations. September’s topics include medication safety, legal considerations following a death, and understanding hearing loss. See page 3 for all of the details.
