Join Us Nov. 6th at Briar Patch in Grass Valley
Grass Valley is Special! Why? Because there are only four adult cohousing communities in the US and one of them is here.
For people over 50 who want to live in walkable, sustainable, adult communities where real relationships with like minded people flourish, this is an idea worth hearing about. Adult Cohousing is an idea who’s time has come.
Tell your friends to come hear Katie McCamant, author and architect, speak about adult cohousing in general, and the development of Wolf Creek Lodge in Grass Valley right here in the Briar Patch Community Room.
Katie is co-author, with architect Chuck Durrett, of the recently released “Senior Cohousing: A Community Approach to Independent Living. – The Handbook” and “Creating Cohousing: Building Sustainable Communities”.
The presentation is free to the public and will take place at the following location:
Sunday, Nov. 6, 2011
1:30PM – 3:00 PM
Briar Patch Community Room 290 Sierra College Dr. Grass Valley, CA
For many baby boomers, the dream of spacious living has become a liability. The coveted large home and rolling lawns are a pain to maintain. At the same time, boomers are finding that traditional retirement communities are not always an attractive alternative. They don’t want to be managed, and they don’t want to live with hundreds of other seniors.
Members of adult cohousing seek a balance between independent and community living, and are creating a caring and supportive neighborhood with those who share their vision of purposeful aging. Members range in age from 55 to 87 and include couples moving from their previous “dream homes” on 15 acres, to singles purchasing their first home.
