Weekly Programs & Events
Bone Builders: (Tuesdays & Thursdays from 11-Noon.)
One hour classes held twice a week are designed to increase bone density. Participants use ankle weights and hand weights, and participate in warm-up, cool-down and balance exercises. The class relies upon weight training and balance exercises to protect against fractures caused by osteoporosis by increasing muscular strength, balance and bone density.
Community Meals: (Doors open at Noon, meal is served at 12:30.)
Community Meals are prepared from scratch by our accomplished chef, Sunni Tipper. Everyone is welcome, but please let us know if you plan on attending. Meals consist of a starter when you arrive, (usually soup or salad), a main dish and sides, and dessert. Come early, and visit with friends and neighbors.
Meals are provided free of charge, with a $5 suggested donation.
Food Shelf: Our food shelf is open every Tuesday from 12:30 - 5:00, and on the second Friday of the month from 10-Noon. If you plan to come on the second Friday, please call ahead (802-827-3230).
Food deliveries are also available on Tuesdays to homebound individuals. If you are in need of emergency food assistance and are unable to come when we are open, please call to arrange an appointment.
The food shelf is open to anyone in need of food assistance. MORE INFORMATION HERE
