Summer fun ahead for the Academy of Lifelong Learning

I don’t know about you, but my favorite months are May, June, and July because the weather is finally sunny and warm enough to get outside to work in the garden or go golfing or swimming.

Is it my imagination or are the little things in life getting more difficult with each passing day? It took me at least a half hour to remove the packaging from a new battery-driven can opener that opens the can without me having to hardly use my arthritic hands.

The Academy of Lifelong Learning (ALL), part of Lincoln Land Community College’s Community Education department, is an organization of seniors (50 years and over) who share an interest in continuing the learning process long after most of us have finished any formal education.

Looking forward to fall activities!

I do not think any of us ever appreciated being together with friends and family for celebrations as much as we have this summer. The times we took for granted, we realized can change in an instant.

Join in the fun: Up — out of the rocking chair

I am delighted to be a member of an energized, engaged, caring, tenacious group of lifelong learners. Almost every small group has found a way to involve their special team of participants.

Do you have a special tree?

“This my tree!” Did you ever say that? One in the yard where you grew up? Or maybe one that you selected and planted yourself at your adult home?

Zooming into the future

As we have all experienced, COVID-19 and its subsequent restrictions have resulted in drastic changes in our normal lives. It has forced us to adapt and adjust in order to continue to pursue our personal lives and the mission of our organizations.

Make a friend or two and learn something new

The Academy of Lifelong Learning, or ALL for short, is an organization founded at Lincoln Land Community College more than 25 years ago. Anyone age 50 or better is welcome to join.

Plant your own Victory Garden this spring!

Gardening might give us the hope we need amid the coronavirus pandemic, keep us occupied at home, and help us prepare for any shortages in the future.

Inspiration awaits: Why not join in the fun?

With 390 members, ALL offers activities throughout the year, as well as special events. A number of monthly programs and special interest groups provide a wide range of activities.
