New Visitors Encouraged to Attend Open House Breakfast! Age Well Center at South Fremont 47111 Mission Falls Ct.
Wednesday, January 17, 8-11am - FREE*
As some know, the AWC at South Fremont is a hub for fun, community connection, and wellness opportunities for adults 55 and older. However, the AWC at South Fremont has been open for a little over two years and the City would like to raise its profile in the community! One great way to get acquainted with the center is to gather around a hot breakfast prepared by Chef Luis! Tours of the center, class demonstrations, and more will be provided. Newsletters will be on hand so readers can find out what activities and events interest them. Staff look forward to attendees stopping by with a friend or neighbor who has never been to the AWC! *Bring a friend or neighbor who’s not registered at the AWC to dine for free; otherwise, breakfast is $5. For more information and to RSVP, call 510-742-7540. The Open House will be enjoyable for all!
