Let’s Do Lunch
Let Elder Care Services bring you lunch on Wednesday, July 18, 2012. All proceeds will benefit services for seniors in the Big Bend area. For only $10 a meal, a volunteer will deliver a lunch to you between 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. You could plan a celebration for your office or business or just order lunch for you and a co-worker (minimum 2 orders per office please).
Oktoberfest
In 2011, Elder Care Services entertained over 800 guests at our 13th annual Oktoberfest. (click here for details) Plans are now underway to host our 12th anniversary event on 10/5/2012!
The event will be held on Friday, October 5th at the Carriage House at Goodwood Museum and Gardens. The smell of Bavarian food and the sounds of German music will fill the air under the majestic oaks. Beer tasting and a silent auction are also featured at the festival.
The hours this year are 6:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m., and tickets are $50. Limited reserve tables are available. Call to purchase tickets
Elder Elf
We help with the basics throughout the year – food, a bath, trips to the doctor. Many seniors on very low fixed incomes have nothing to spare to celebrate the holidays. Elder Care Services hopes to brighten their holidays with our Elder Elf Program. Our care managers have identified those clients in need this holiday season. Their “Wish List” requests are often heartbreakingly modest – slippers, a sweater, or a doll for a grandchild.
There are many ways for you to help this holiday season, please contact Ed at (850) 921-5554 to learn more.
