Family Meet and Greet for Dr Turner Lodge and St. John Paul Middle School

Linking Generations held their Annual Family Meet and Greet Evening at Dr Turner Lodge recently. This annual event is held to recognize the intergenerational connections made between seniors and youth in our community.

Our mentoring Linking Generations Seniors are an integral part of our Linking Generations program, and we each year we encourage our senior and youth participants to each share our program success with their families. Each senior and student is asked to invite ‘ONE’ family member to attend our special evening.

The Family Meet and Greet is like a regular Linking Generations visit, as there is a structured activity planned to do together.

A few of our comments received at our event were:

Thanks so much for the great evening experiencing the Linking Generations events. The seniors and the students are both blessed to be able to experience the bonds that bind their lives – sharing ideas and learning from each other.
Simply put – this is a lovely program. The connection between the youth and the seniors is just what the world needs, not the regression of generations we normally see.
