Family Caregivers seldom take the time, or find a place, to talk about their own needs—especially when their loved one has been diagnosed with dementia or other long term illnesses. Isolation is not the answer! Come share what you are experiencing, find encouragement, and hope from others at our new support group meeting on the first Friday of each month from 1:30-3pm. These meetings will be held at Council on Aging’s Next Door Group Respite located adjacent to our office. Please call (704)-292-1797 if you are interested in attending.

Come along as we mosey into the tales of trails past with Steve Howard, a real cowboy known not only for breeding prized bulls for Professional Bull Riders Inc. and American Bucking Bull, Inc., but also for his talent as a cowboy poet. There will be a light lunch following the program.

Join us as we delve into the happenings of World War II and what led to the establishment of Camp Sutton in Monroe, North Carolina. Described as a “hardening camp” for soldiers going overseas to the war, Camp Sutton functioned as a support and staging area for the 1942 Carolina Maneuvers. Jack Clay will describe in more detail the local camp’s rich history and provide some artifacts for observation at this month’s program! There will be a light lunch to follow the program.
