This fall semester Seniors Achieving Greater Education [SAGE] will host its Fall Kick-Off, starting at 10 a.m. on Friday, Sept. 11. To keep everyone safe SAGE will be holding a large group ZOOM meeting for the Kick-Off.

On Saturday, Sept. 12 from 10 a.m. to noon near the former Kmart end of the Aroostook Centre Mall SAGE will be having a drive through time at the Aroostook Centre Mall parking lot to drop off your registrations, pay your membership fees, and pick up a gift bag in appreciation of your participation.

Courses this fall range from The Wonders of America’s State Parks, to The Amazing Planets, to 

Be Red Cross Ready for Seniors. For a complete listing of SAGE fall 2020 courses and a registration form, please visit msad1.coursestorm.com/.

A number of this year’s classes will be held on the computer through ZOOM. Stay in your pajamas, have a coffee, wrap up in a blanket and stay comfortable and join us for some very interesting courses. If you like, SAGE is offering practice ZOOM lessons for anyone interested in learning, getting more comfortable with ZOOM or wanting to gain more skills at using it. Email penny.kern.pk@gmail.com  

Annual membership in SAGE is $25. Courses are $5 each for members, though some hands-on courses and activities have additional fees. 

For over two decades, SAGE has been bringing people, from age 50, together in a relaxed atmosphere to learn from instructors who are knowledgeable and engaged. Come join us for the joys of sharing in this life-long learning adventure!
