The show is a romantic comedy,” he said. “It’s full of romance, comedy, drama.

Understanding Dementia
townlively.com /events
Chances are, we all know or have encountered someone with dementia. Whether it’s a family member or a random stranger in the grocery store, knowing how to interact with someone with dementia and learning more about the disease can benefit everyone. Donna Wilkie, a certified dementia practitioner at Hospice & Community Care, will present “What Do I Need to Know About Dementia?” at Zion Lutheran
Church, 2 Hazel St., Manheim, from 1 to 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 29. The presentation will address different types of dementia, teach ways to effectively communicate with a person living with dementia and offer ideas for other “dementia friendly” actions. “The program will cover five key messages to understanding better what people living with dementia are going through,” Wilkie said. “We want people who come to the program to be able to react better See Dementia pg 2

If you have questions about achieving financial stability, developing skills, understanding AI or navigating the tech world, Goodwill Keystone Area’s Wisdom Opportunity Wealth (WOW) is a great place to start. WOW offers one-on-one coaching, retirement and long-term planning, AI and tech literacy training, career and entrepreneurship guidance, budgeting and credit support and tools to keep you accountable. And all of its programs are provided free of charge. WOW began after Sue Soderburg retired from Goodwill as chief mission officer and wanted to leave a legacy program with the organization she’d served for more than 30 years. It started as an initiative focused on women and was called Women of Wealth. “In a lot of ways, women are still behind, especially when it comes to financial literacy,” said Taylor Gilbert, WOW program director. “We served a ton of women within the first and most of the second year of the program, but as word got out, there was so much interest in what we were doing, and we felt we were limiting the number of individuals we could help. We didn’t want to turn down anyone who wanted our services.” As Gilbert explained, the WOW program comes into a location - which could be a business, a school or any other group - and provides all programming, activities and take-home assignments, along with refreshments.

Dementia from pg 1 when they come across people who have dementia.” One of the biggest messages Wilkie hopes people will take away from the program is that dementia is not a natural consequence of aging. “We’ll talk about what’s normal aging and what’s not normal aging ,” she said. “Losing your keys or forgetting why you came into a room are signs of aging, not necessarily anything more.” S h e a l s o h o p e s p a rticipants will begin to view dementia for what it is - brain failure - and help make that concept as mainstream in everyday conversations as kidney or liver failure. Wilkie understands firsthand what it’s like to care for a person with dementia. “My mom died from Lewy body dementia in 2016,” she said. “I came to work at Hospice in 2019. I got involved with their dementia resource team. It’s a passion for me. I wish I had the education that I now have when I was trying to help my mom. It’s really important that people get that education to help their loved ones.” The presentation at Zion Lutheran is part of Dementia Friends, an organization dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives

of people with dementia. “Zion is committed to join a growing movement to create ‘dementia-friendly’ communities,” said pastor Kate Warn. She noted that the program is part of a series of informational sessions for the Manheim community related to the idea of “aging with grace.” The program will be interactive, Wilkie said, with opportunities for questions from the audience and hands-on activities. And above all, it will present dementia as more than a devastating diagnosis, she said, adding, “We’re focused on trying to remember all the things a person with dementia can do, rather than the things they can’t do.” She wants participants to leave with a better understanding of people living with dementia. “You could have a family member with dementia, or you could just encounter a person living with dementia who you come across in the community,” she said. “We want everyone to be able to react in better ways when this happens and know what to do.” Advance registration for the program is not required but is helpful for planning purposes.

She’ll bring a handful of laptops, a WiFi hotspot, a projector and a screen to provide the classes. “ We don’t want any thing to be a barrier to us coming in and doing a program,” she said. WOW has also begun offering programs focused on AI, the first Goodwill in the country to do so, Gilbert said. “ We ’ re w o r k i n g o n breaking down the barrier of being scared or intimidated to use AI,” she said. “We talk about safety and privacy. We break it down so people can see how easy it is to use AI.” While some people may think AI is a topic suited for businesses or people in the tech industr y, it can be a helpful tool for anyone, she said. “ We have a pro g ram called ‘AI at Home,’ where we show people how they c a n u s e A I fo r t h i n g s like making a meal plan, setting a grocery budget, help with their résumé or creating an exercise routine,” Gilbert remarked. WOW programs can be one-time sessions or multi- week initiatives, depending on the topic. T he pro g ram is selffunded through grants and proceeds from Goodwill retail stores. Recently, Sen. James Malone awarded a $100,000 state grant to the program at Goodwill’s store and donation center in Elizabethtown.

“I’m proud to have helped secure funding for a program that empowers people to achieve financial health by teaching them how to budget and manage their resources,” Malone said. “Goodwill’s WOW program meets people where they are through par tnerships with organizations, like the L ancaster County Prison, to end cycles of poverty and give people a hand up into a better future.” Since its inception about three years ago, WOW has reached more than 2,000 individuals throughout 22 counties in southcentral Pennsylvania. Gilbert hopes to impact even more people in the future. “A lot of people want to learn more about financial literacy or have a retirement plan or learn to invest or build an emergenc y fund, but they don’t have a plan to do that, and nothing moves forward,” she
said. “Take the first step and reach out to me, and I’ll take it from there.” To learn more about WOW, contact Gilbert at tgilbert@yourgoodwill.org, call 610-858-5137 or visit www.yourgoodwill.org/ services/wow. Sign up for emails Scan QR or call

“ T h i s i s n’t s o m e o ne coming in with a PowerPoint, giving their presentation and then you never hear from them again,” she said. “Our first priority before educating people is building trust and building that relationship with them. We want to know, ‘Where are you at in your journey with this topic? What do you know? How can we help you?’” W i t h e a c h p ro g ra m , WOW works to present information that’s relatable to the audience, whether that’s a group of senior citizens at a retirement community or a bunch of preschoolers. Gilbert noted that feedback the organization receives from teenagers is especially compelling. “Kids will say, ‘Can you please come back? We never knew this before,’” she said. “ T heir teachers touch on financial topics, but we go into depth about ever ything from the FAFSA to scholarships, renting your f i rs t a p a r t m e n t , w h at it looks like to get your first car.” WOW is unique to Goodwill Keystone, and the program can be offered on weekdays, evenings or weekends. “ We’ll come in over a lunchtime and do a program,” Gilbert said. “We’ll come in any time where we can reach the most people and that’s the most convenient for them.” WOW has offered programing to church groups, homeschool co-ops, re s i d e n t s o f h o m e l e s s shelters and domest ic violence shelters, schools and more. “ W hatever the group wants, we can design our program to fit their needs,” Gilbert remarked.

“He’s sort of the rascal of the show and could be seen as the villain,” he said. “I end up seducing one of the young maidens. I have a checkered past, which forces me to break away from her and causes her heartbreak. Playing this character is very different than anything I’ve done before. I usually play comedic characters, so being the villain has been a really fun challenge.” Encore!

Featuring a cast of 20 homeschooled students, the play adapts the Austen novel and tells the story of the ups and downs of the Dashwood sisters. Sensible Elinor (played by Grace Miller) and hypersensitive Marianne (portrayed by Cambria Brinton) are reeling after the sudden death of their father, which has left them financially destitute and socially vulnerable. A chorus of gossips provides judgment and commentary on the characters as Elinor grows close to Edward Ferrars (played by Noah Arnold) and Marianne falls for the dashing John Willoughby while Colonel Brandon quietly pines for her as well. Through it all, the play asks the question, “When reputation is everything, how do you follow your heart?” Paul described his character as a middle-aged man who wants to find love. “He’s been hurt in his past, and he longs for another relationship. He’s invited to visit the Dashwoods, and he immediately falls in love with Marianne,” Paul explained. “He’s a very emotional, passionate man, but he’s restrained. He keeps it on the inside.” For Brennan, playing John Willoughby has given him an opportunity to stretch as an actor.
