Fall 2024 Update

A New Approach
​We have embarked on a new model of operations and governance, in which volunteers will play a major role. Groups of interested folks will work with staff and board members on well-defined programs, such as:

• Encore
• Food Pantry
• Communal Events
• Wellness Activities
• Personal Outreach

Volunteer committees will help define the activities that make up these programs, as well as recruit volunteers who put in the hours and bring the skills that make them possible.

CORE is supported by two part-time employees.  We look forward to recruiting a full-time director in the future.
​

​Some Program Specifics Under Development

• Encore will will be open Fridays and Saturdays for the late fall and winter powered by a fantastic group of dedicated volunteers!
• Food Pantry — Staff and a volunteer team continue to meet crucial food needs weekly.
• Communal Events — Staff and a committee are planning meals and thinking about other events to be held in the former Maggie’s building.
• Wellness Activities — Winter Walking in the Lakeside Pavilion, twice a week, January through March. The Wellness Team is also looking for ways to make available senior-friendly activities, expanding on those offered by Bayfield County and the Rec Center.
• Personal Outreach — We are beginning with friendly visits and respite opportunities for caregivers.
