SUMMARY:Jordan Messerole Live
DESCRIPTION:From the depths of his midwestern roots\, multi-award winning songwriter Jordan Messerole writes songs that vary as greatly as the wild flowers in the native tall grass. Messerole does frequently write about that flora\, as well as the fauna of the region. Not to mention all of its wild life. \nNot one to shy away from subject matter\, the songs can frequently meander across the lines between love and loss\, success and failure\, or life and death. \nMesserole masterfully blends the sounds of his guitars with thoughtful lyrics\, an engaging stage presence\, and often rack harmonica to tell gritty American tales that are bound to evoke emotion from all of his listeners.

SUMMARY:Grand-Friends
DESCRIPTION:Get ready for one of the sweetest parts of summer—Grand-Friends is here. This intergenerational program brings together local older adults and Boys & Girls Club youth (Kindergarten–1st grade) for meaningful\, joy-filled connection each week. \nJoin us at 10am in the Connections Room at the PACC for relaxed\, 40-minute sessions filled with simple activities like reading\, crafts\, games\, and conversation. Each participant will be paired with the same child when possible\, allowing real friendships to grow over time. \nSummer Dates: June 11\, 18\, 22\, 30 July 9\, 16\, 23\, 27 August 6 \nWe encourage participants to make this a regular part of their schedule\, as consistency helps these connections truly take root. A missed day here and there is okay—but showing up regularly makes all the difference. \nCome be a steady presence\, share a few laughs\, and make a lasting impact—this is the kind of program that sticks with you. Ready to make a lasting impact (and have a little fun while you’re at it)? Reach out to Amanda Kaldor at amanda.kaldor@perhamhealth.org to get involved.
