We've added new information on assistance with many senior-related services to our "Local Services" page, which features free or low-cost services available to County active adult/senior residents. Legacy Link is an Area Agency on Aging that represents north Georgia. It helps connect people with services related to aging and disabilities, providing help with Medicare, senior employment, volunteerism, wellness and assistive technology. See the Local Services page for more details under "Senior-related Services".
LATEST EVENTS:
Get geared up for fall and Halloween! While not specifically Age Well sponsored, there are some fun events coming up in October for seniors and youngsters alike.
Senior Services Halloween Party on Friday, October 20 from 11:30am to 1:30pm. It's a free event but you need to register by

For those of you asking about Haunted History tours this fall, the Historical Society is doing something a bit different, but
should be entertaining in its own right! On October 28th they will be having Historic Bus Tours of Cumming with narration at
