Sunshine Memory Cafe

Sunshine Memory Cafe A group that meets once per week for people with memory loss, Alzheimer’s or dementia, and their care partners. We will just enjoy each other's company.

We enjoy activities and crafts, and occasional field trips. A Memory Cafe is a place where you can go to socialize and have fun with other people who have worries about their memory. At a memory café, people can relax and just be themselves. They can enjoy activities, share stories and socialize with others, knowing that no one judges them and all who are there are going through almost the same th

ings that they go through every day. There may be games, crafts, music, art, speakers, and occasional field trips - whatever is of interest to the group. We welcome individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment, early- to mid-stage Alzheimer’s, or other forms of memory loss or dementia, and their care partners.

Last week we enjoyed a beautiful afternoon at the Yellow Springs Art Show, now in its 51st year. We learned a little about the very interesting history of Yellow Springs from Executive Director Tim Compton. And we heard about the astounding 4654 pieces of art by 216 artists exhibited in the Art Show from Manager Maureen Fendrick. Many thanks to Maureen for hosting us and to Karen Herr for setting it up.

Laura helped us all paint or decoupage sea shells recently, which we took home and (optionally) hid for others to find. Just to spread a bit of joy... And two of our shells were found within a couple days!

Last Tuesday was Vinyl Records Day, when we brought in a turntable and some of our favorite albums. We had a great time listening to songs from these and many many more records, and reminisced... Do you still have some of your favorite records stashed away somewhere? What are the songs that make up the soundtrack of your life?

Laura, doing a great job as always!

Sunshine Café had a "field trip" today to Shellbark Hollow Farms. We got to meet the goats, learned all about they make goat cheeses, and even sampled many varieties. Delicious! A lovely day in the country. 😊

We had a great time on "Happiness is a Warm Puppy" day - learning about Charles Schultz, Snoopy and the gang! Plus we enjoyed a visit from some real warm puppies from the BVSPCA, and therapy dogs from Paws for Change.
Last week we had the 5th Annual Sunshine Derby! We donned our fancy hats, enjoyed Derby Pie, Pimento Cheese snacks and Mint "Juleps", and learned fun stuff about the Kentucky Derby.
