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.

From 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., learn about and discuss historian Barbara Tuchman's 1956 chronicle, "The Bible and the Sword," of Britain's long relationship with pre-Israel Palestine and the Middle East, from the ancient world to the twentieth century.

Have you heard about the White Sands National Monument in New Mexico?  Join us from noon to 1 p.m. to see and hear about it.  It is part of CCR's continuing series, "National Parks and Monuments."
