The Better Health Program

Fridays from 8:00am-4:00pm

The Montville Senior Center is offering a FREE Better Health, Mental Health, Program at the Montville Senior Center. Many people find the holidays difficult, or suffer from
depression, have anxiety, or just need someone to talk to. Mental Health is a very
important part of health care so you can be as healthy as possible! Don’t neglect your
mind while taking care of your body! Join a group for discussion sessions or sit down
one-on-one with our licensed clinician to talk! This program is made possible with a
grant received from Senior Resources with Title III funds made available under the Older Americans Act. Don’t miss out on this great service! It’s never too late to start to take care of yourself—mind, body, spirit! Call for details and/or an appointment! A suggested donation of $1.00 per visit is appreciated! Thank you!

FAIRY HOUSE Project Program

Wednesdays, July 6, 20, August 10 and 24  10:30 am -12:00 pm

Crafters Wanted! If you enjoy crafting yet might not have the space or reason; this could be for you! Fairy houses are made from nature, so items that are found in the yard are going to work.  Come volunteer and craft a Fairy House to be donated to our LUMINARI WALK event to fundraise for Groton Parks Foundation. This community event will take place on Saturday, October 22 evening at the Copp Family Park.

Fairy Houses will first be featured in our center shop, they will decorate our LUMINARI WALK trail and then finally they will be auctioned at the event.  We need to know how many to expect – please sign up.
