 A Wisdom Council Discussion Group of Transition Sebastopol 

Calling All Elders, Earth Elders, Wannabe Elders, Soon-to-become Elders, or Interested Baby Boomers on up! 


The Elder Salon is a nonhierarchical circle of peers. We’ll introduce the discussion with some thoughts from an elder voice or thought-provoking instigator to kick off our own discovery of what it is WE think and believe about the topic; what WE want and need now and in our future; what WE think should be the course of action and attitudes as we progress into and through our older years

WHY: There are a lot of new ideas about aging, staying youthful in body and spirit, and our role in society and local life. What have our generational contributions been and what is left undone? What are our mistakes and triumphs?

Start: May 24 2013 3:30 pm

 When: Friday afternoons, 3:30 - 6:00 p.m.

Where: Coffee Catz, 6761 Sebastopol Avenue, Sebastopol

Friday afternoons at 3:30 at Coffee Catz. Our informal gathering is usually indoors now, in the back room when we can get it. Our numbers have grown and we can hear one another better inside, though a hot day may put us back outdoors. We encourage you to try it some week.

Drop in-arrival and departure times are loose. We no longer use a sign to identify ourselves, so if you see a gathering of gray heads, just inquire.

-- Alexandra, Lucky, and the Transition Elders
