They are typical of the kind of presentations held almost weekly at Campbell. <br />Each presentation provides information that is useful to adults and seniors – from <br />serious health and financial issues, to fun topics such as Turning Trash to Treasure, <br />Culture Explorations or how to “Can The Clutter.” By far the most popular presentation <br />for the Baby Boomer crowd, and the one that is repeated monthly, is “So, You’re Going <br />on Medicare.” <br /> <br />From learning how to use a smart phone to birding at home, the presentations provide <br />useful information for free to help adults maintain their health, independence, social <br />connections, support networks and quality of life. For more information about this and <br />other programs and activities at Campbell Center, contact Recreation Manager Diane <br />Sconce at 541-682-5318. <br /> <br /> <br />EUGENE CITY COUNCIL NEWSLETTER PAGE 3 <br />April 24, 2014 <br />
