Notes From The Council

The Council is looking forward to offering Soup again! And on January 5 th Elizabeth Doughty will be doing a very timely and important workshop on Fall Prevention. A workshop focusing on teen mental health challenges is planned, combined with dinner and a question-and-answer opportunity with Janna Hobbs and Michael Hollander. It has been a long time since we have been able to gather to share a meal, new information, and reconnect

with our neighbors. The Hall’s new HEPA filters, along with distancing, masks except when eating, and being fully vaccinated make these events possible. The CART committee has made getting fully vaccinated, including boosters, easy. It is all available right here on the Island. Don’t miss this chance to protect yourself, your family, and your friends and neighbors – and have what you need to join everyone at the Hall!
