Paducah, Kentucky (May 6, 2016) – West Kentucky Community and Technical College’s Seniors Learning for Fun organization will celebrate its 20th anniversary with a reception in the Emerging Technology Center May 17 at 2 p.m. All past and present Seniors Learning for Fun members are invited to attend the celebration.
“We want to celebrate with the many senior learners who have enjoyed being a part of the program over the past 20 years,” said Kevin O’Neill, WKCTC community education director. “Everyone reminiscing about the fun times they’ve shared through the hundreds of varying activities, events and field trips throughout the region will be wonderful.”
Some of the past seniors learning adventures include learning about:
· World War II battle sites,
· making sound financial investments and estate planning,
· Paducah’s historic houses of worship, UNESCO Creative City designation and revitalized Coca-Cola plant,
· cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration and caring for eyes with diabetes,
· child safety and how to help prevent child abuse and neglect,
· how to stay connected with family and friends with Facebook,
· strengthening exercise for balance and posture,
· how emergency organizations protects the public, and much more!
“Anyone who is 55 years old or older can take advantage of the fun and educational opportunities we offer through the Seniors Learning for Fun” said O’Neill. “It’s our goal to provide our senior learners with unique learning experiences they will always remember and continue coming back for more fun!”
