Program

Activities. Here at 65 Plus, you might say that we offer something for everyone. That is, we present a variety of fun and stimulating activities such as cards, cooking, concerts, dinner parties, discussion groups, gardening, films, & and sports: golf, ping pong, tennis, & walking, to name but a few.

Boating Excursions & Parades. A longtime boat owner and boat parade organizer, Lowell Safier, has much experience and knowledge in arranging for boating events that are fun for everyone. Among the treats which 65 plus will offer is a Catalina Ship Cruise, and a visit with the Coast Guard Auxiliary. (A photo of Lowell at the helm his boat, "Lotz of Knotz" can appear in this category).

Care Giving. We offer classes which educate attendees about senior care giving needs, and how to find the right type of caregiver for an individual's particular needs. We offer referrals to experienced and well-regarded senior caregivers to those in need of caregiving. These referrals include such caregivers who are 65 Plus members.

Counseling For Healing. We offer compassionate and caring counseling to members in need of healing from hurt, grief, and trauma. The counseling will be provided by other members who are trained and licensed professionals. We will also offer referrals of highly recommended counselors to those in need of counseling.

Exercise Classes. Trained and experienced instructors teach exercises designed to lesson inflammation, physical discomfort, and improve joint mobility, thus enabling them to move about less painfully and more freely.

Family & Friendship: The Solution For Isolation. This program addresses the importance of seniors having a support system through family and friends so they are encouraged every day by others who care about them, and are not living life alone and feeling isolated and disconnected from others. Both professional experts and 65 Plus members will discuss this important topic, and offer solutions.

First Aid Made Easy. Here, we present experienced first aid responders and fire department members who teach those in attendance helpful first-aid tips for everyday living, such as fire prevention and CPR. Also included in this itinerary is what to do when facing such natural disasters as an earthquake.

Health & Nutrition Awareness. Experienced and credible licensed and practicing medical professionals and nutritionists will be on hand to offer good sound health and nutritional advice to members seeking to live a healthier life.

They will learn of these rental, sharing, and buying opportunities from their fellow members and from housing specialists.

Law Enforcement & Safety Awareness. These presentations will feature law enforcement experts who will share practical solutions about public safety and crime prevention. Those in attendance will learn simple ways in which they can better protect themselves, and how they can look out for one another through neighborhood Watch programs. (A Photo of Lowell Safier can fit into this category with this clever quote from Lowell himself: "You're safer with Safier.".
