02:00 PM - 04:00 PM "Voices of Wisdom" Adult Writing Classes
The third session in this series offers new activities to unearth the often-hidden golden nuggets of remembrances. Teacher-guide Sally Kaplan, writer, editor, and film and television producer, leads participants in writing exercises to remember specific places, relationships to historical events, and reveal the individuality of each life story. In a relaxed cooperative workshop setting, participants spend time in the recall and writing of memories. A focus on Calaveras County, its history and participants’ place in it, serves as the overarching theme.
This project has been made possible through a generous grant from the Calaveras Community Foundation.

Sonora, CA...Please join us for this year’s Tip-a-Cop fundraiser event on October 17th, 4-8 pm at Applebee’s Restaurant in Sonora. A law enforcement officer will be teamed up with a Special Olympics Athlete, who will then help one of Applebee’s employees. The trio will wait on tables and serve customers throughout the evening.


The Special Olympics athlete will get a chance to share his/her experience with Special Olympics and show off medals they have won. The law enforcement officer will leave an envelope at a table with the hope that a donation (tip) will be left for Special Olympics.

This event raises money to provide local Special Olympics athletes with FREE year round sports training and competition opportunities in 12 different sports.

We would love to wait on you!!!! Hope to see you there.
04:30 PM - 06:30 PM Freedom From Smoking Class Begins in August
Sonora, CA...Adventist Health Sonora is once again offering the American Lung Association’s Freedom From Smoking® course beginning August 29. Classes will meet each Tuesday and one Thursday from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. for seven weeks at Pulmonary Rehabilitation, located at 19747 Greenley Road in Sonora. Freedom From Smoking provides a supportive group environment where adults work through the quitting process together with guidance from a respiratory therapist. According to the American Lung Association, “Research has proven that the more time a smoker spends in a supportive situation, the more likely he or she is to succeed. People who use [Freedom From Smoking] are six times more likely to be smoke-free one year later than those who quit on their own.”



Class participants will learn about:
• Medicines that can help you stop smoking
• Lifestyle changes that make quitting easier
• Preparing for Quit Day
• Managing stress
• Avoiding weight gain
• Developing a new self-image
• How to stay smoke-free for good

This class is covered by most private insurance and Medicare. For those without insurance or whose insurance does not cover the class, scholarships and discounts are available.
Are you ready to quit? Take the quiz at http://www.freedomfromsmoking.org/take-the-quiz/ and find out. For more information or to register for the course, please call 209-536-3726.
