CORNWALL | Seniors in Cornwall and the United Counties of SD&G will soon have new opportunities to take part in social and educational activities. Seniors in Stor- mont-Dundas and South Glengarry will receive financial support for the Cooking Circle, announced Guy Lauzon on May 5, on behalf of the Honourable Alice Wong, Minister of State for seniors. Lauzon will be announcing over $170,000 in projects in the coming months through the New Horizons for Seniors Program. The first local project announced will see the Seaway Valley Community Health Centre re- ceiving $25,000 for their project, The Cook- ing Circle. The said project will increase social par- ticipation of older adults through an inter- generational culinary cooking program to increase knowledge of nutrition. In part- nership with the Boys and Girls Club and TR Leger Immigrant Services, Seaway Valley Community Health Centre staff will support older adults as they mentor youth through the transfer of culinary knowledge. Stu- dents will earn their required high school community service hours while they share their expertise in technology. Older adults and youth interested in participating can register by contacting Seaway Valley Com- munity Health Centre at 613-936-0306.
