The Southwestern Vermont Council on Aging (SVCOA) is thrilled to announce the much-anticipated return of the Memory Cafe to Rutland County after a three-year hiatus! This cherished community initiative aims to provide a warm and inclusive environment for all older Vermonters including those living with memory loss, along with their families, caregivers, and friends. We are delighted to invite you to join us for the first Memory Cafe gathering on Tuesday, July 18th, from 10:00 am to 11:00 am at the beautiful Maples Senior Living Community "Day Room", located at 5 General Wing Rd, Rutland, VT.
Memory Cafe is an invaluable opportunity for everyone to connect, socialize, and engage in enjoyable activities in a supportive setting. This gathering serves as a safe space for any older Vermonter to interact with others who understand their experiences. It fosters a sense of belonging, promotes emotional well-being, and encourages participants to share their stories, memories, and talents.
During this eagerly awaited event, we have organized a range of activities designed to stimulate the mind, spark creativity, and inspire meaningful connections. Whether it's through music, art, games, or lively conversations, Memory Cafe is all about embracing the joy of the present moment and building lasting connections within our community. There will also be light refreshments available.
Mark your calendars for Tuesday, July 18th, and come join us at the Maples in Rutland, VT, from 10:00 am to 11:00 am. Please spread the word among your friends, neighbors, and anyone who might benefit from this enriching experience. The Memory Cafe promises to be a delightful morning filled with laughter, companionship, and shared memories.
