2A | AUGUST 26, 2021 | COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL On The Record City conducts mobility hub survey The City of Cottage Grove is looking to design a mobility hub that meets the transit needs of its community. As part of our research, the city is reach- ing out for feedback about mobility hub needs. A mobility hub is a cen- tralized location where many different forms of transportation meet up to make using transit even more convenient. The study that is being created will be separated into three parts. The first part is to identify what a transit hub generally would need – as well as identify what the Cottage Grove community would want in a centralized tran- sit area. The city will then ana- lyze Row River Trailhead Park and identify its cur- rent, proposed, and long range uses and how the mobility hub could work within these plans. Lastly, it will examine how these two overlap and decide how to properly build this for the commu- nity. The public is asked to participate in a survey to gain the community’s in- put on what kind of ad- ditional transportation modes the public would like to have access to in the community. The survey will be avail- able until the end of Au- gust. For more information, contact Abby Gisler at agisler@southlantransit. com. The online survey can be found at: forms.gle/ XQwuBxEbVa4zwEyw7.

Magnolia Gardens hosts dementia support group Magnolia Gardens is hosting a dementia sup- port group for caregivers, spouses and those affect- ed by Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia. This group will be meeting in person at the First Presby- terian Church in Cottage Grove every third Thursday of each month from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. Some of the key bene- fits of attending a support group include: ongoing ed- ucation about Alzheimer’s and other dementia, learn- ing about community re- sources, improving coping skills and gaining a sense of control over individual situations. Having the opportunity to share with others who may be going through a similar situation is very im- portant. Magnolia Gardens em- phasizes the importance of self-care, sharing and gathering ideas on finding a better balance between the caregiving role and other essential aspects of life such as family, work and person- al time. COVID precautions are being taken and anyone interested in attending or needing more information can contact Ruth Tracey at 541-942-0054.
