Join us on Wednesday, August 24^th from 12:00 to 1:30pm to learn how programs around northern New England are creating opportunities for healthy living for both our brains and our bodies no matter our physical or cognitive abilities.   From walking paths, horticultural therapy, recreational therapy and adaptive biking to sports programs – the goal of these programs is to get moving and have fun!  During this webinar, we’ll be hearing from a few communities and programs across the region that are offering exciting and innovative experiences and learning opportunities for older adults to promote overall health and wellness.  We hope you’ll join us!

Presenters:

• Irene Barber, Horticultural Therapist, Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens
