Ben Aydin from Right at Home Lehigh County was featured on WFMZ on the topic of "Including the elderly this holiday season". Ben gave several points to consider to ensure that an older loved one is included in the holiday festivites. Sometimes seniors are left out of family gatherings because the children have moved away or are very busy this time of year. It is also important to help seniors celebrate in a safe way. He mentioned mobility can be an issue. For instance, we need to help them navigate the hectic mall envirnment. We want to provide safe and convenient transportation - whether it be family or something like Lanta.

If you stopped by the Fearless Fire Company last Thursday, the place was on fire with fun. Upbeat music was ringing through the hall as more than 200 seniors gathered to “dance through the decades”. The jitterbug, fox trot and even a few waltzes filled the afternoon with an energetic vibe. The smiles were outweighed only by the sharp moves of some of the dancers who could have auditioned for “Dancing with the Stars”.
Six Lehigh Valley Aging in Place volunteers went to ManorCare in Bethlehem and hosted games, crafts and spent time with the women there in honor of mother's day.
