I received the following press release that I am happy to post —
– A new social club with a focus on brain health –
The Alzheimer’s Association is introducing a new Brain Fitness Club, open to anyone that would like to keep their brain “sharp”, has concerns about losing memory or has experienced some minor memory loss. Topics presented during the club meetings will include nutrition, stress relieving techniques, physical exercise and brain exercises. This is an excellent opportunity to socialize with others and have fun. The Brain Fitness Club meets the last Thursday of each month from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. at the Wesley House, 2931 Main Street in East Troy.
