This Spring, Canadore College will be offering special programming for older adults and seniors in the Parry Sound area.
The Seniors in the Forest program will run at the college’s West Parry Sound campus which boasts beautiful surroundings where older adults and seniors can experience nature close to home with the support of experienced volunteers, guides and professionals.
The project includes interaction with children, youth and older students, and will facilitate activities to decrease isolation and encourage movement.
Participants will be given the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of photography as well as social media, photo sharing and storytelling through photo technology.
Lee-Ann Turner, Supervisor of the West Parry Sound campus says the goal of the program is to build an autonomous, volunteer-led, sustainable program for the community with the college.
