Center for Creative Retirement- Today's Program

The Center for Creative Retirement (CCR) meets Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, mornings from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., and afternoons from noon to 1 p.m. Retirees seeking an intellectual challenge and social engagement will find in the program just what they are seeking.

Each day brings a fresh perspective on some topic that the members have chosen as part of the syllabus. CCR volunteers research and present the topics. As a member, you can look forward to a rich tapestry of new facts and perspectives.

Tuesday's morning session is a provocative look at women's "rights" in the countries of the Middle East where subjugation of women is a common practice.

In the afternoon, sit in on a lively roundtable discussion of current events.  Expect our moderator to elicit opinions about the government shutdown, the turbulent Middle East, and whether we can trust the overtures Iran has made to the United States.
