Age-Friendly Town Hall Meeting

From Shane Cote', who is coordinating our Age-Friendly Community project:

We are going to be holding a town hall meeting for the Age-friendly Living Guidelines Project. On Monday, September 27th, from 6-8pm, at the Lake Country Municipal Hall, we will meet for two hours to talk about age-friendly planning in the area. I invite you to come out, however old you are, and share your opinions, thoughts and ideas about what age-friendly planning might mean for you now, and in the future.

In October, following the Town Hall Meeting, I will be conducting six focus groups with area residents. If you have two hours to spare, I'd love to hear what ideas you have for creating better connections with your neighbours, for how to access services and District amenities more easily, what kind of transportation works for you and what doesn't, what kinds of District events and communities you are part of, and where and how you might like to contribute even more to making Lake Country a wonderful place to live. The focus groups times vary; there is one offered every day of the week but Sunday, and occur in the morning, afternoon, and evening. I hope to see some of you at these events -- don't worry though, you only need to come to one! Please feel free to print out the posters below and show them to your community groups, friends and family.
