Hundreds attend Aging In Place symposium
Fall apples to benefit local
teens at Twin Lakes Store
The Twin Lakes Store has
once again begun fundraising
for its annual Teen Giving
Tree and is asking the commu-
nity for donations of produce
and fruit. One hundred percent
of the proceeds are used to buy
Christmas presents for the
teens in the north lakes neigh-
borhood.
“Gleaning the local gardens
is a wonderful way to raise
money for our teens,” said
Vicki Ambrosio, owner of
Twin Lakes Store. “Plus the
customers benefit from fresh,
local produce at a fair price.”
Tomatoes,
tomatillos,
beans, zucchini, apples and
more have been available from
3 A
time to time. However, apples
— including Asian apples —
are all that is currently avail-
able.
“So if you have an abun-
dance of fruit or vegetables,
please consider donating
for this fundraiser,” said
Ambrosio.
Twin Lakes Store is located
three miles North of Florence
on Highway 101, near Sutton
Lake.
Donations can be dropped
off during business hours,
seven days a week, from 8
a.m. to 9 p.m.
For more information, call
Twin Lakes Store at 541-997-
3021.

An estimated 500 people attended the Aging In Place symposium Friday, Sept. 16, at the Florence Events Center, pre-
sented by the Florence Area Community Coalition (FACC) and co-sponsored by Habitat for Humanity, PeaceHealth
Peace Harbor Medical Center, the City of Florence and American Association of Retired Persons. In addition to 30
exhibitors providing information and resources to help older adults maintain an independent lifestyle while living at
home, presentations were made on six topics including wellness, safety and emergency, home repair assistance, basic
estate planning, fraud and theft prevention, volunteering and employment opportunities. “FACC’s motivation in
organizing this event was to educate and provide information and resources so our community members can devel-
op personal and collective plans of action to address the needs of our aging citizens,” FACC board member Suzanne
Mann-Heintz said.

lic art project will be
Saturday, Oct. 8, and the
Library Friends have until
then to raise the funds needed
to purchase Eco to keep it at
the library before it goes up
for auction.
Since April, when Eco went
on display in front of the
Florence branch of the library,
it has generated lots of atten-
tion, many special visits and
countless photos with visitors
and residents alike.
“Eco is a fantastic interac-
tive learning opportunity,”
said Library Director Meg
Spencer. “We can take chil-
dren to see the art and ask:
How many fish can you find
on Eco? or Which ecosystems
are depicted on Eco?”
“Eco and the Ecosystems of
Oregon” was created by
Siuslaw High School student
and regular library patron Ben
Cahoon. Eco is part of a pub-
lic art project, Dancing with
Sea Lions, which commemo-
rates the Florence Events
Center’s 20th Anniversary and
celebrates the ripple effect of
the arts in the community.
