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 Ali Noll, Life Enrichment director, at [email protected] or 717.264.5700, ext. 50332.
Ongoing Programs
Under each category, you will find a list of ongoing programs offered at your life plan community. Each listing includes the name of the activity, a description, meeting time and a contact, if applicable. Take a look at the continued growth opportunities for your body, mind and spirit!
