BOOMERVENTURE:
BoomerVenture Campus is looking forward to spring with a new
roster of classes and activities aimed at making the most of
the changing of seasons.
At the top of the to-do list for boomers is leading an active lifestyle.

BoomerVenture as we come into the spring. Acknowledging the need for
reflection and replenishment, BoomerVenture will offer a hands-on "how-to"
for meditation, as well as an opportunity to reflect on nature with the
Clear Water Haiku writing series. Join the fun with our "Spirited Painter"
outing at local Metamorphosis and discover your inner artist (but no
experience necessary!). And for those needing any support in caring for a
loved one as their needs increase, please be sure to contact us about the
