Summer PrimeTime Events!
Furman Lakeside Patriotic Concert
Thursday, June 29, 7:30-8:30pm
Furman University Lakeside Amphitheater
Join us for an inspiring patriotic concert by the Air National Guard Band of the South at Furman's beautiful lakeside amphitheater. The concert begins at 7:30pm; you'll want to get there early to get good seats. For those who desire, we will provide transportation via 14-passenger MRCA buses, leaving Mitchell Road at 6:15pm. Those who ride the bus will be dropped off very close to the amphitheater at a paved sidewalk which wheelchairs and walkers can easily navigate. You must register for the bus! If you have a handicap parking tag, you can also park close to the amphitheater. Other parking requires a good bit of walking, some of it over uneven ground.
PrimeTime will provide water and snacks. Please bring lawn chairs and hats - the sun can be quite bright until it drops behind the nearby trees.
No cost. Please register online by Monday, June 26.
Information Chowdown - Living with Hearing Loss
Monday, July 31, 11:30am-1:00pm
Fellowship Hall
Learned from her more than 20 years with progressive hearing loss, MRPC member, Nancy Sturrock, will share some tips and tools for living with hearing loss. These are for the person who has hearing loss as well as for their loved ones and friends who struggle to communicate with them. Nancy now has cochlear implants which enable her to hear again, but she hopes to never forget how frustrating and isolating it can be to not be able to hear your world. Come hear Nancy's story, learn a bit about what it is like to not be able to hear well and to gain some practical tips for making communication with those who struggle to hear easier for everyone involved.
There will also be a short talk about the Hearing Loop at MRPC.
