48 | SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | JULY 2017 | Once again it is time to celebrate the 4th of July with our wonderful golf cart parade. Come in your cart or with lawn chairs. You can find a spot on Country Club and watch the carts go by. This is a fun event for everyone. I hope to see you there. Also, thank you to Marjorie Amstadter who has designed and created a very beautiful banner so our Memory Care Group can be represented in the community. Look for our banner flying proudly along Country Club. Our next meeting and caregivers support group will be on Thurs., July 20 at 10 am in the Multipurpose Room. These meetings are not only educational for you, the caregiver, but are also a support group for you. ALL CAREGIVERS are welcome at these meetings. If you are no longer a caregiver because your loved one is living in a memory care facility, you need this support group. This is a major change in your life and we are here for you. Those of you who are caregivers do not have to be caring for a person with memory loss to attend. We are here to support and educate you, plus entertain your loved one while you are attending the meeting. There is not a guest speaker this month. During this meeting your loved one is welcome in the Arts and Craft Room for games, exercises and an hour of live entertainment. Thank you to Ray Roberson for entertaining us in June. This month we will have double entertainment. Valerie Hubbard will entertain the first hour and Sheila James will entertain the second hour. We are so fortunate to have these two very talented ladies give of their time and talent to entertain our loved ones. If you have any questions and would like to learn more about memory loss, we have reading material we can loan you. Call Diane, 769-0130 or Anne, 845-8700, Remember, we are here to help. Continuing with Know the 10 Signs Early Detection Matters from the Alzheimer's Association: Sign #7 - Misplacing things and losing the ability to retrace steps A person with Alzheimer's disease may put things in unusual places. They may lose things and be unable to go back over their steps to find them again. Sometimes, they may accuse others of stealing. This may occur more frequently over time. What's a typical age-related change? Misplacing things from time to time and retracing steps to find them. Memory Care Group
