We have had a busy and productive summer here at the Aging at Home-A

Community Network program! With over 250 members now, our members

have been staying connected and supported, getting out and about, and staying

physically fit. This summer we cooled down with a tasty yogurt treat and woke

up to a warm, yummy breakfast. Other members have been lacing up their

sneakers and hitting the trails in our NEW Walking Club. The SAGE sessions

will begin again in September. We are looking forward to seeing many of you

at two local senior fairs in September. Stay tuned for our next Table Talk

Dining Club-coming soon. There is a lot going on and Aging at Home- A

Community Network can help connect you. Our goals are promoting healthy

aging and increasing community involvement for all our members. We are

here to help- just give us a call (215) 302-9900!
