Matter of Balance is a fall prevention program for seniors. It has been proven to be successful by improving balance, making your environment safe, and dispelling the fear of falling.
On Jan. 9, from 1-3 p.m., there will be a presentation of the program at the Smoki-Haulers Sno Sled Club in Oakfield. Dottie Sines from Presque Isle is the master trainer. Bonnie Pratt from Oakfield is the volunteer class instructor. The storm date will be Jan. 16 from 1–3 p.m. also at the Smoki-Haulers Sno Sled Club. You are invited to come to the presentation.
There is also going to be a Lay Leader Training in Presque Isle on Jan. 31. This training is for volunteer class instructors. We would like to have someone for Houlton and another person for Sherman to be a volunteer class instructor. If you are a community-minded person, this is for you. For more information, please call Dottie Sines at 764-3396 or Bonnie Pratt at 757-8355.
