Happy Fall, 

     October is such a colorful time of year

with the leaves turning different shades of

orange, yellow and red, along with displays of 

pumpkins and vibrant mums. The staff has been busy planning new activities to help you celebrate the autumn season. Many Lifelong Learning courses are available including a trip to the Cape Cod Cranberry Bog. We also have a black cat felting craft class late in the month that you might enjoy!

      Please be aware that open enrollment for Medicare Part D starts on October 15th with 2 staff and 3 volunteer SHINE Counselors preparing for appointments. We have a presentation on Health Plan Options on October 5th that might help you with sorting out some of this needed information. It is also National Fire Safety Month and we have scheduled our Marshfield Fire Department to host the Triad, where they will talk about tips and strategies on fire prevention in your home. 

     We are also partnering with AARP to offer a safe driving course on October 9 . Many people who have taken the course previously, have found it very helpful, so please consider signing up. 

     We will be offering a “new” quarterly art exhibit in partnership with the North River Arts Society. Each quarterly exhibit will feature a special artist or sometimes a group of artists. This exhibit will officially start in November with an opening reception on November 5 from 4-6 pm in the Multi- Purpose Room, so mark your calendars! 

Hope to see you at the Center, 

Carol
