Richwood Civic Center

By Susie Pfarr, Executive Director 

This month we will be hosting two classes here at the Civic Center with the Alzheimer’s Association, Wednesday, Oct. 9, “The Empowered Caregiver: Communicating Effectively” and Wednesday, Oct. 23 “Responding to Dementia Related Behaviors” both at 6 p.m. If you or someone you care for has dementia, these are two classes that will be beneficial to your caregiver team. Please RSVP to the office if you plan on attending. We have a mystery trip planned for Tuesday, Oct. 15. If you are interested in going on this fun trip, please stop in the office to reserve your seat. The cost is $25. We have all our other activities that you can come have fun with going on as well. Line dancing class is every Monday at 12:30 p.m., bingo is Monday and Wednesdays at 1 p.m., cards on Tuesdays at 1 p.m., Geri-Fit exercise on Mondays at 10 a.m. and Thursdays at 9 a.m., Bible study at 10 a.m. and sewing class at 1 p.m. on Thursday. We also have book club every month on the 2nd Tuesday, and then Fellowship Dinner on the 2nd Tuesday as well. Lastly, there is a breakfast club every 4th Wednesday of the month. Richwood Civic Center is now taking nominations for our Christmas Bell Program. If you know of a senior that is in need or needs some extra love this season, please call our office and give us their name, address, phone number, age and a suggestion of what they would like. All gifts will be delivered the week before Christmas.
