VIRTUAL CONNECTIONS
Staying home and staying healthy is good for all of us, but it can lead to feelings of restlessness, boredom and isolation. Although it is not the same as face-to-face conversation and camaraderie, we are fortunate to have technology to help us stay connected, active and engaged until we can be together again in person. Explore the resources below and enjoy a virtual visit or activity today!
We use Zoom Meetings to host our online activities. step-by-step instructions for creating a free account and joining meetings online.
