THANK YOU

To everyone who has contributed to making this program a reality for the seniors in our community. 

 

Our facilitator and exercise leader, Alyssa Service of Active Arts, has stepped up to her role with grace and enthusiasm.  Her joy in dance and upbeat temperament really start our weeks off right. Alyssa has been sensitive to the unique needs of everyone in the group and conscious of her role as leader.  Her care and consideration has truly set the tone in developing the exercise portion of this program. 

We particularly appreciate the efforts of volunteer Mary Forward, who has greatly assisted in  getting  this program off the ground through many shutdowns and delays. She has worked hard to book presenters, help facilitate the program and was instrumental in getting it off the ground. Mary continues to attend sessions to work with our ongoing team of volunteers who support the program.

Thank you to our program manager Kerri Lewin  volunteers:
