Dear Friends,Whether you’ve been connected to Turner Senior Wellness Program (TSWP) long enough to remember the Wall Street digs and the annual picnics of yesteryear (complete with dancers pictured on the cover) or you discovered TSWP more recently, I hope you’ll join us in celebrating something special: 20 years on Plymouth Road!
For two decades in this location we’ve provided a dynamic range of activities, services, and information with the goal of improving quality of life for older adults and their families. We're proud of the wide array of programs we offer and the many ways we’ve made a difference for those who have visited this warm and welcoming space over the years.
Stay tuned as we mark this 20th anniversary by delving into the archives to recognize the people and activities that shaped TSWP along the way and celebrate what we are today. More information will be coming in 2018 so join our mailing list to be in the know. Become a partner below, contact us via phone or email, or stop in. All are welcome. Here’s to another 20 years!
Best Wishes,
