Class Highlight! As Gary says, come "play your Parkinson's away!" with us every Friday at Fun Fridays w/ Friends! Our main game, volleyball, has grown in popularity and fun. We'll mix in other games and have a blast as we finish up the week!

We will be closed for classes on Tues, 1/7. This will give everything 1 more day to (hopefully!) dry up. W/ the below freezing temps overnight, we are concerned about morning road conditions & slipping hazards in the parking lot. Live Zoom class at 11am; stay tuned for details!
