'CROSSROADS OF HARMONY" 

We are a four part womans harmony chorus is meeting each Monday night at 7:30 pm at the Genesee County Nursing Home in Batavia.

If you LOVE good harmony and you love to sing, please come check us out.  There are no auditions, and you do not need to read music to sing with us.

Singing provides wonderful health benefits as well.  It causes a release of endorphines, it helps you breath deeply and  completely, it makes you smile, and it's a fun outlet for stress!

We sing for all kinds of events and organizations.  We love to perform, but mostly we love to just simply get together in a relaxing and fun atmosphere and just sing!

Call Beth at 548-9533 for more information any time.

The free screening will available from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Nov. 17 at the Kmart Pharmacy, located at 8363 Lewiston Roadin Batavia.

"Memory loss is one of the first signs of the onset of Alzheimer’s and it is imperative we do everything in our power to protect seniors from this devastating disorder,” Hawley said in a press release.

At the screening, qualified healthcare professionals will offer confidential memory screenings and information about Alzheimer’s disease, along with information regarding local resources for healthy aging.

Approximately 4.5 million Americans currently suffer from Alzheimer’s disease or related illness and it is estimated that the number will triple to more than 16 million by mid-century. The greatest risk factor for memory loss and Alzheimer’s is age, with this risk doubling every five years after the age of 65.

As part of this year’s awareness campaign, AFA also hosted commemorative candle lighting ceremonies nationwide on Nov. 15. For more information about any other memory loss questions, please visit
