• Exercise by dancing; chair dancing if necessary
• Food Art: preparing nutritional food, teaching about nutrition, sharing it.
• Crafts, puzzles, and games.
2. Provide Outreach and Referral to seniors in the north Lincoln County area: finding those in need and referring them to social services, like Meals on Wheels, our services, and medical services.
