Battle of the Sexes
The 1973 tennis match between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs became the most watched televised sports event of all time. Trapped in the media glare, King and Riggs were on opposites sides of a binary argument, but off-court each was fighting more personal and complex battles. With her husband urging her to fight for equal pay, the private King was also struggling to come to terms with her own sexuality, while Riggs gambled his legacy and reputation in a bid to relive the glories of his past.

Tick Borne-Disease

Groton Senior Center is now part of the SECT Lyme Disease Prevention Task Force

 TICK PREVENTION

Staying active is an important part of living and aging well. Warmer weather makes it easier for us to get outside and garden or hike our beautiful parks and wooded areas. Warmer weather also means that deer ticks are more abundant, and many ticks carry Lyme disease or other diseases. So, protect yourself by limiting your exposure to heavily wooded and shaded areas, maintaining your property by clearing away leaf debris and tall grass. Keep deer off your property and when hiking, staying on wide paths.  Don’t forget to check your body for ticks each day and remove them promptly to reduce your risk of infection. For more information contact Ledge Light Health District

1 in 6 Americans will get food poisoning each year.  Ledge Light health District will talk about safe cooking temperatures, food to try to avoid, safe food handling practices, sanitization and more on how to protect ourselves from food poisoning.  With grilling season just around the corner, come learn how to practice Safe Food Handling.

Active Living Every Day (ALED) program

is an evidence-based behavior change program. The approach is unique because it addresses the root causes of inactivity rather than simply prescribing exercise. ALED is like no exercise class you’ve ever been to. In fact, you won’t exercise at all in your weekly Active Living classes. Instead, you’ll find ways to be active every day: at work, at home, on vacation, etc.

Active Living Every Day works because you’ll learn the skills you need to become and stay physically active.
