2025 Goals. This year AARP will keep pushing to make Delaware’s communities more livable by supporting improvements in transportation, walkability, and age-friendly housing. We will stay involved with efforts to improve the quality and safety of long-term care, support caregivers, and protect voting rights for older Delawareans and those with disabilities.

Events. Of course, we are also planning fun activities this year, such as virtual yoga and bingo, cultural events including art exhibits and musical theater, and Movies for Grownups. We have even added a new local AARP discount with the YMCA. So if you are looking for something healthy, fun, or entertaining to do, visit AARP Delaware’s events webpage: https://local.aarp.org/bethany-beach-de/
Andrus Award. Recently Chris Powers, then chair of the South Coastal Village Volunteers, was our guest at the 2024 Andrus Award celebration: “Broadway and Beyond.” Chris, our Andrus Award winner last year, graciously agreed to present this year’s award to Linwood Jackson.
I wish a happy, healthy New Year to all of the Village Volunteers. Be well, stay engaged, and enjoy the quiet season on the coast!
