Rivermills Reminder
The RiverMills Reminder is printed and distributed with funds provided by the City of Chicopee, the state Executive Office of Elder Affairs, local businesses, and individual contributors.
Current Issue:
The RiverMills Center has launched a tablet lending program for Chicopee seniors ages 55 and older who have internet access, but do not have an updated device to get on the internet. These tablets can be used to get online, play games, or join Zoom programming.
This program will allow seniors to sign out a device for up to 3 weeks at a time. The tablets will also have charging and typing accessories, as well as a basic user guide.
If you know a Chicopee senior who could use a tablet please contact Program Technician Jona Ruiz at 534-3698 ext.104 or jruiz@chicopeema.gov.
Below is a list of all our programs and the Zoom links you will need to join the programs taking place this month. If you would like to participate in any of the programs below but are unfamiliar with Zoom, our Program Technician can help you get connected. To schedule an appointment for assistance, please call Jona at 413-534-3698 ext.104, or send an email to: jruiz@chicopeema.gov.
For a description of each program click the current issue of the newsletter at top of this page.
