Last night we had our first general member meeting of the semester (more to come, and info from last nights meeting will be posted on HuskyCT shortly). It was a great turnout, so thanks again to everyone who came.
Tonight ALD will have a booth at the Involvment Fair and it is our first Nursing Home Visit of the semester.
Nursing Home Visits are cornerstone service events for UConn ALD. This semester, visits will be on Wednesdays from 6:00-7:00pm on dates TBA. During these trips, interested volunteers can come to the Mansfield Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation and hang out with the residents for about an hour. We participate in different scheduled events. Often we play board or card games. Spa night, ice cream socials, and baking are some of the other themes. They are really a great opportunity to give back to the community, and the residents love having college students visit them. If you are interested in participating in a future visit, keep on the lookout for dates and emails about sign-up, as they fill quickly.
More details about committees to come...so stay tuned
