About this event

All-member Zoom meeting to match people of similar interests for ongoing activities. Come pitch your ideas or connect with others who share your interests. Here is the current list of ideas that came out of our Oct. 21 all-member meeting:
Games Group - cards and board games
Memoir Writing - Dede has offered to lead this
Meditate in Nature - not your traditional meditation; instead use quiet walks in the forest sitting by ocean, etc. as a form of meditation.
Goal Accountability: one-on-one partnering or group check-ins to keep you on track for a goal you have set for your self, whether it is fitness or another type of goal.
Morning Check-ins - partner one-on-one for a daily check-in to make sure all is well.
Symphony & Concert Group
Men's Group
Stronger Memory - a curriculum designed to stimulate the brain's prefrontal cortex, which governs our ability to retrieve memories. Participants spend just 20 to 30 minutes a day engaged in simple reading, writing and math activities. The StrongerMemory program is currently available in a workbook of exercises.
