Senior Moments

One of Michele LeBlanc's life mottos is "learn from the BEST!" This week, she revisits Southern Manor to share advice from Seniors to Seniors. (That's Senior citizens to Seniors in high school!) Whether or not you're about to embark on your next big adventure, we can all benefit from this heartfelt life advice.

Starting over can be hard! Are you new to town or entering a new phase of life? Meet Michele at the Statesboro Newcomers Club for fun, refreshments, and new friendships.

The multi-talented Regina Days-Bryan remains active and inspirational to others in her senior years. A Georgia Southern Athletics Hall of Famer, she now teaches Senior Line Dancing and wants to motivate others to be their best no matter what.

When Hurricane Idalia swept through Statesboro, the residents of The Lodge at Bethany were right in the middle of a game of Bingo! Join Michele LeBlanc to see how they made lemonade from lemons together -- during what could have been a scary time.

At Southern Manor, Activity Director Barbara Eloi makes sure to give her residents a healthy dose of FUN and LAUGHTER! It is the best medicine, after all! Join Michele LeBlanc as she learns about all the recent happenings that are keeping smiles on the faces of the young at heart.

Sing, sing, sing! The Boro Community Choir invites you to lend your voice and find encouragement and fellowship with other seniors 55+. There is no experience or specific denomination required; you only need a LOVE of singing and a JOY to serve your community through song!

Grice Connect's Senior Reporter Michele LeBlanc was recently asked to speak at a local meeting for retired educators. She and her new-found friend and collaborator from the library shared information about GC and technology training. With more than 40 years in the corporate staffing and sales world under her belt, Connecting Seniors through her role at Grice Connect has become the perfect '2nd Act' for Michele.
