• Lots of activity on two fronts with implications for the CHV members.  The DC Council is considering renovations to the Rumsey Aquatic Center, and CHV has some definite ideas on things that will benefit older adults. Then, there’s the proposed football stadium. Lots of debate coming this summer and expect CHV to weigh in on the final plans.
  
• June is Alzheimer’s and Mental Health Awareness Month, and Care Services Specialist Alex Smith explains dementia, and warning signs and strategies for those dealing with mental issues in loved ones.
  
• Washington is hosting World Pride celebrations right now; events are occurring all over the city—storytelling, theater, marches, concerts and lectures.  And there’s a celebration organized by Capitol Hill Village. 
  
• Decluttering and down-sizing—always challenging for older adults.  CHV will provide some help in a three-part summer series, which will also include a discussion of senior living options.
  
• Get out your sparkles and American flags and join the CHV contingent in the Capitol Hill Fourth of July Parade.
