(Archive) Generation to Generation week at The Thompson 2019

by

August 5 – 8, 2019, 10:30 am to 2:00 pm

Summer matters!  Many children jump for joy for summer break, but not all.  For some, summer is a time when learning stops, meals are scarce, and caring adults during the day are less accessible.  Older people have abundant skills and life experience to share. Younger people thrive with the support of caring adults in their lives!

The Thompson Senior Center in Woodstock, VT, has dedicated a special week when young people in our community come together with seniors for learning, fun, and to make meaningful connections.   This year, the week of August 5th will be “Generation to Generation” week at The Thompson with programs offered by ArtisTree, The Woodstock History Center, and teacher, Barbara Leonard. 

The proven benefits of intergenerational activities are numerous and meaningful to both generations.  

Join us for a week of kid and adult-friendly lunch menus, arts & crafts, music, games, ice cream, dancing, and more!   

 

Daily Schedule:

Other details: 

Cost:  FREE.    Donations for meals are welcome, but not required for children or adult volunteers.
