The Creative Lifelong Learning (CLL) program, sponsored by Granville County Senior Services, has completed its 2018/2019 schedule, with organizers preparing for the 2019/2020 course offerings.
Almost 300 Granville County residents participated in the Fall 2018/Spring 2019 program, which included a variety of courses, activities and educational trips. Topics included Conversational Spanish, Marketing and Advertising, Tai Chi as Physical Therapy and many others, some of which were not limited to local seniors, but were open to any participant over the age of 18.
The CLL program will continue to be open to Granville County adults, ages 50+, as well as to those outside the county and/or over the age of 18. The program is now renewing memberships for the coming year, as well as accepting new members.
Class/activity schedules are available in the “Senior Connections” monthly newsletter, as well as on the Granville County Government webpage. Visit www.granvillecounty.org/residents/senior-services/.
Among many new topics/experiences scheduled for Fall 2019, CLL will offer the educational series “My Former Life.” This course will focus on the professional experiences of Granville County seniors and their careers before retirement. According to organizers, the course will provide an understanding of some unique career choices and will offer a glimpse into the depth of knowledge of our senior citizen population.
New teachers are now being recruited for the upcoming Fall and Spring season and new classes are being developed on an ongoing basis. If interested in becoming involved, teacher applications are available online at www.granvillecounty.org/residents/senior-services/.
Participation in this program continues to be encouraged and new CLL members are welcome.
The Granville County Senior Center in Oxford is located at 107 Lanier Street in Oxford. For suggestions for future schedule additions or for more information about the program, contact Marilyn Howard, CLL Coordinator, at 919-693-1930.
