BUILDING BRAIN-HEALTHY HABITS
The Alzheimer’s Association Michigan Chapter will present Building Brain-Healthy Habits at the Vicksburg District Library. This program will present tips to build healthy habits and help protect your brain. Research shows there are everyday habits you can build today to help protect your memory and thinking as you get older – even reducing your risk of cognitive decline and possibly dementia. This program takes place on Wednesday, September 2 at 4pm. You are welcome to RSVP here.

Registration is limited to 5 boxes per month. Registration for Book Boxes is now open and will remain open through August 17. To register, follow this link.
How Book Boxes work: Book Boxes are for adults 18+ only. You tell us your reading preferences – what you’re looking for and what you’re not looking for – and you’ll get a box with three surprise library books and some treats. The books and boxes are checked out like any other library book and returned on their due date.
