Centered & Connected Update for June 2020 FiftyForward College Grove Dear FiftyForward College Grove members, We hope you are all staying safe and healthy and doing as well as possible during this time we are in. It is hard to believe it’s June and we are almost to the heat of summer! We know this has been an interesting time and we appreciate your patience as we are doing our very best to find new and fun ways to stay in touch. We hope you have enjoyed the virtual programming as well as some nice phone conversations with staff. We certainly do miss you and look forward to when we are all able to return to FiftyForward centers safely. We cannot be back together yet for programs inside our centers, but we certainly want to stay connected as well as we can. This month each of our centers is hosting a special Beep-and-Greet “drive-thru” event. We hope you can swing through and say hello! We will practice safe social distancing protocols, so wear your mask, take a drive through the parking lot, and give us a wave. You are welcome to join any of the drive-thru events scheduled at the centers, details in the newsletter. Our FiftyForward College Grove “Beep and Greet” will be on Wednesday, June 17 from 9:30—11 a.m. Come by and say hello to Sarah, Rhonda, and Lorie in our College Grove parking lot. We can’t wait to see everyone’s smiling faces. It will be a fun time as you drive through and get a little goody that staff will be handing out to the first 40 members. Follow the signs and balloons!
In other news, each spring we send out our FiftyForward Membership Survey because your feedback is very important to us. This survey provides important information for FiftyForward staff and center Advisory Councils about the ways we can best serve you. Your opinions and input mean a lot to us, and this year we updated the survey to include questions about access to technology, virtual programming, COVID concerns, re-opening, and general demographics. Our hope is that we can learn more about what we can do to support, champion, and enhance your life! You can either click on this link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ YKNR5QD or call the center at 615-368-7093 to complete the survey. The deadline to complete the survey is June 19. We wish you all the very best and look forward to talking with you and seeing you (at a distance) soon. Take good care,
Sarah Sarah Stephens Center Director
