This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 193 in the series and now collaborating with Franklin.TV and Franklin Public Radio (wfpr.fm).
This recording shares my conversation with Karen Alves, Director of the Franklin Senior Center. We took a few minutes to talk through what is coming up in February at the Senior Center. For example, we covered
- Emergency Preparedness in coordination with the Norfolk County District Attorney's office
- Skipped to March to talk about the St Patrick’s lunch
- Fall prevention
- Valentine’s Brunch
- Senior Players start again playing for a performance in May
- Dental health
- Historian Gary Hylander (Stonehill/Bridgewater St)
- Dementia Friendly
- Memory cafe
- Town Administrator Jamie Hellen
- Heart month
- Other regularly scheduled daily programs
Yes, we covered a goodly list of topics. I think that is the complete listing. If we missed one, let me know (via email) and we’ll find a good and worthy prize.
On the Franklin Senior Center page, the top left corner shares the link with the current newsletter. To subscribe please use the link from the Town of Franklin home page to “Connect” https://www.franklinma.gov/subscribe there are a variety of options to set up email subscriptions with the Town and the news they provide.
Our conversation runs approx 35 minutes, so without further ado here the Senior Center outlook for February 2020 with Director Karen Alves.
