Ongoing Programs

Life Enrichment Offers Shared Programs Through Zoom

Our Life Enrichment directors offer a variety of virtual programs across all six of our life plan communities. Residents can participate in programs from chair yoga and strength training to devotions and brain games that may not have been offered at their own community. The cross-community programs provide residents a change of pace and the opportunity to interact with friends from other communities.

For more information, contact Jess Sheahan, Life Enrichment director, at [email protected] or 717.854.2585, ext. 11305.
