All about biking with The Recyclist! Welcome Lora Glasel from The Recyclist who will talk all things bikes – and perhaps there will even be rides? You’ll have to come to the Memory Café to find out!


Memory Cafés are for those experiencing early stage dementia, mild memory loss or cognitive impairment, and for family and friends of those affected. It’s a great opportunity for lively discussions, information gathering, refreshments, camaraderie, and lots of creative fun thrown in! We have a gerontology professional on hand to answer questions and an enormous wealth of experience among participants to be shared. We’d be delighted if you would join us!

Sponsored by the Fox Valley Memory Project, Neenah Library, and Valley VNA.

This program was made possible by the Friends of the Neenah Library and the Neenah Public Library Trust Fund. Donations to the Friends and the Trust Fund are always accepted and appreciated.
