Your Information Source for Community Activities on the South Shore
As October arrives, we welcome the beauty of fall and the opportunity to continue connecting with our community. This edition of The Advisor features a variety of activities, programs, resources, and events focused on wellness, learning, and connection.
This month, we are excited to highlight Mindful Together, a returning activity that encourages participants to pause, reconnect with themselves, and explore practical mindfulness tools. Join Brandon Stewart in Greenfield Park or Chambly for sessions focused on being present, self-awareness, healthy boundaries, and self-regulation. See pages 3 and 6 for more details.
We are also continuing to build digital confidence through our Digital Skills programming. This month’s workshop, Google Made Easy: Search, Reviews and Maps, will offer practical tips for using Google Search and Maps, as well as understanding and leaving reviews. See page 3 for more information.
Our Intergenerational Dancing activity brings students from Lucille-Teasdale Secondary School together with community members for a fun and lighthearted afternoon of movement and connection. Facilitated by the Cummings Centre, this activity is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy music, dancing, and time together across generations. See page 3 for details.
For caregivers, Caregivers Café continues this month with four Wednesdays of guest speakers, practical information, and meaningful conversations. Highlights include the launch of a new collaboration with the Aging With Dignity Podcast, a session with Tel-Aide Montréal, a SHARP presentation, and a workshop with Connected Canadians. See page 4 for the full schedule.
We invite women to join the St-Jean Book Club this October to discuss The Correspondent by Virginia Evans. Held at the Collectivement Elles women’s centre, this welcoming book club is a great opportunity to connect with fellow readers, share ideas, and enjoy an engaging discussion. New participants are always welcome. See page 6 for more information.
Families are also invited to our Family Wellness Saturday Halloween Party at the Royal Military College in St-Jean. Come dressed in your favourite costume and enjoy festive crafts, games, and treats in a welcoming, family-friendly setting. Registration is required, so be sure to reserve your spot. See page 6 for details.
