50+ Connections: Cooking

Socially “connect” and learn from professionals who provide practical and resourceful information so we can “thrive” and not merely “survive” daily life. This is a relaxed and enjoyable forum, which encourages participation among attendees. This is facilitated by Syntero Older Adults Community Support Specialist Charity Eilerman. Any older adult in Columbus is welcome to attend.

Topic: Cooking – Let’s talk food! What are your earliest memories from the kitchen? Who taught you to cook? What are some of the most useful things you have learned about food preparation? Bring a recipe to share with the group if you’d like.

Registration: Participants must register and complete a waiver prior to participation. To register, please call the Upper Arlington Senior Center at 614-583-5320.
