“We’ve all heard the expression ‘Middle-age Spread’, but does that ‘spread’ really have to happen?” asks Louise Blasius, McKenzie Healthy System’s Director of Social Services and part of the Lunch & Learn Committee. “Maybe the ‘spread’ can’t be avoided altogether, but Sandra Martin, RN, will give Lunch & Learn audience members tips on ways to minimize it and how to remain fit and healthy during the aging process; something we all need to know!”

The class will be presented in a relaxed, informal atmosphere, and in an interactive format.  “Plus,” Blasius reports, “class participants will have a delicious and weight-conscious meal.  What a great way to spend a lunchtime!”

Blasius continues, “Because our dining room has limited seating, pre-registrations are required by calling Nina Barnett at 810-648-6127.  We encourage people to reserve their space as soon as possible.  We hope to see you there!”
