Botsford Commons to Host Forums on Senior Living

Area seniors learn about experiencing the ‘Fullness of Life’

They aren’t called “The Golden Years” for nothing, but finding out how to live your best life in those years is sometimes easier said than done. That’s why the Botsford Commons Senior Community experts will present their “Living the Fullness of Life” program at three locations this fall.

The events will provide information on aging safely and other helpful resources for seniors.  

The first presentation will be held on Thursday, September 13 at the McDonnell Towers, at 24350 Civic Center Dr., Southfield, MI 48034 from 11:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m.  Please call 248-426-6908 to register. 

The second presentation will be held on Friday, September 28 at Schoolcraft College’s Vis-Ta-Tech Center at 18600 Haggerty Rd., Livonia, MI 48152 from 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.  Please call 734-462-4443 for payment and registration information.   

The final presentation will take place on Wednesday, October 3 at the William Costick Center, located at 28600 Eleven Mile Rd., Farmington Hills, MI 48336 from 11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.  Please call 248-473-1830 to register.

With useful, timely information, “seniors can live full, happy lives” said Margaret K. Lightner, President of Botsford Commons Senior Community.

 “Living the Fullness of Life” includes informal presentations by Botsford Commons’ experts and their affiliates; “Aging and Fitness to Drive” by Dr. Richard Young, Ph.D of Wayne State University (9/28 and 10/3 dates only), “Healthy Aging” by geriatrician Dr. Annette Carron, “Brain Fitness” by Diane Zide; and “Getting Your Documents in Order; Community Resources” by Dawn Doyle.
