                                     Mission: "Share The Wisdom"

Participants from Learning Retirement walk away feeling positive, healthy, active, social, educated  and excited. Learning in Retirement is a great way to meet new people in the community.













Learning in Retirement has been started in Penticton by a group of volunteers in conjunction with the South Okanagan Seniors Wellness Society in 2007.

It addresses the learning needs and interests of mature adults by providing affordable and accessible day-time opportunities for intellectual stimulation and personal enrichment (and its fun!).

All courses, seminars and workshops are lead by volunteer study group leaders who have a passion and interest in the topic:

>These leaders will determine general course direction but depend on the study group members to share their knowledge and learn together. 

> Some leaders may want members to prepare by reading some material prior to the course.

If you are interested in any of the study groups listed please complete the form attached. For further information please call Pam at the South Okanagan Seniors Wellness Society at (250)487-7455.
