On Tuesday evening, 10/15/2024, a record number of students and older adults showed up at the SAGE's pumpkin painting event! The room was full of lovely conversations and artistic expressions! There were so many creative art works made!
Apple Picking Fall 2024

On October 5, 2024, we had our third annual apple picking at Robinett's Apple Haus and Winery! We did not get to pick apples though because the u-pick season ended early this year. But we got apples from their store, Allison went there when the door opened to get us warm donuts. We were still able to enjoy our tradition of having sweet treats at the picnic table in front of the "big apple" while catching up with each other. After that, instead of picking apples, we took a walk at the Proven Park next to the orchards. It was really fun! Hiking the park might become our new tradition!

Let’s work together to create meaningful and long-lasting intergenerational relationships so older adults can offer younger adults life lessons learned through experience, and young adults can offer older adults renewed energy and a stronger desire to make the world better for generations to come.
