As a reminder, there will not be a potluck in the month of January. In lieu of a potluck, we will be having our second Senior Movies & Popcorn event on Thursday, January 25th starting at 1:00 pm. We will be screening the 2022 George Clooney and Julia Roberts film where a man and his ex-wife race to Bali, Indonesia to stop their daughter from marrying a seaweed farmer. As they desperately try to sabotage the wedding, the bickering duo soon find themselves rekindling old feelings that once made them happy together. Due to licensing rules, we are unable to advertise the title of the film, but you are more than welcome to give us a call to find out the title! During the movie we will be providing coffee, water, and popcorn free of charge to all attendees. We hope to have you join us on January 25th!
We will be hosting a special seminar on February 15th, 2024 at 1:00 pm led by a staff member at the Alzheimer’s Association in Marquette. The title of the seminar is “Understanding Alzheimer’s and Dementia.” At the seminar you will be learning the difference between Alzheimer’s and dementia, Alzheimer’s stages and risk factors, current research and available treatments, and ways the Alzheimer’s Association can help you and your family. Come and eat lunch at the Senior Center and stick around for this informative session. We will have special treats for those who stick around!
