Plan Your Retirement Right

Get tips from the experts on retiring with peace of mind. The Community Foundation and LifeSpan Resources are having a five-part seminar on how to prepare for retirement.

The goal of Boomer Bootcamp is to make retirement a planned event instead of crisis management. This fun series will brings together experts from our community including attorneys, financial planners, social workers, home care agencies, insurance experts and more. They will answer your questions while focusing on various topics including Medicare and veterans benefits.

When: Every Tuesday in March, 6-7:30pm

Learn from a master gardener this weekend!

You are invited to Cullen’s garden, 1406 Delmar Lane, Southwestern Jefferson County, from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. on Saturday, May 18th. Admission is $5, or free for JCMGA members. The tour is the first of four in the Lessons Learned season and is hosted by the Jefferson County Master Gardener Association.
