Ducks in a Row Program
Many seniors do not have a comprehensive, pragmatic collection of all the information they, their loved ones, and caregivers will need as they face the challenges of advanced aging. Through a series of facilitated workshops supported by high quality videos/materials our Ducks in a Row program will enable attendees to find and capture the pertinent personal information they need. The information gathered will be compiled into a simple, practical workbook format which you personally own and maintain. Our Ducks in a Row program will provide you and your loved ones peace by having all your ducks in a row.
The Spring 2026 Program will be held at the Township of Tiny Community Centre (91 Concession Road 8 East, Tiny, ON) on May 6th, 13th and 20th from 10:00 to 11:30 a.m. The sessions are free, but attendees are asked to bring their own three-ring binder. Participants must register in advance. Registration for this program opens online at www.tiny.ca/playportal for Tiny residents on April 7th at noon, while general registration opens on April 13th at noon.
