Workshop and Discussion
“Uncharted Waters”: Exploring the Gifts and Challenges of our elder
years…..

Now is the time to register for EACH meeting of this series that you plan to attend
using the Coastal Neighbors Events Calendar.

This fall 2024, Coastal Neighbors is offering an opportunity to gather and explore the
gifts and challenges of our senior years. Meeting for six sessions, this workshop’s
discussions will be structured around the book, The Gift of Years by Joan Chittister, as
well as attendees’ unique experiences.

Pat Cashmore, a Coastal Neighbors service member as well as volunteer, has
facilitated multiple groups throughout her long career, including on bereavement,
caregiving, Alzheimer family support, health issues, job stress, mental health, and
rehabilitation among others.

Pat has entitled this workshop “Uncharted Waters” because “growing older always
happens to someone else until it happens to you!” She looks forward to exploring
together this unique period of our lives, especially how these years have been a
“gift.”
