What is Assisted Living?

$35

with Kaitlyn Morse, Noble Adult & Community Education

Calendar Sep 16, 2025 at 6 pm

Are you or someone you know new at navigating information on the different kinds of assisted living out there? Kaitlyn Morse, founder of Maine Aging Partners, understands the difficult road many face when looking into assisted living and wanted to do something to help families and loved ones navigating what assisted living is (and isn't). During this one-night presentation, she’ll discuss how it gets paid for and a roadmap for your loved ones to set expectations for the process. After the presentation, Kaitlyn will have time for a Q&A.

Please note: All information shared covers what independent living, assisted living, memory care, and nursing home facilities look like in Maine and may not apply to sites in other states.

with Casey Marsh, Wells-Ogunquit Adult Community Education

Calendar Sep 17, 2025 at 5 pm

Come learn how to decorate sugar cookies with me! Because of the demand and popularity of the decorated sugar cookies I have decided to teach a beginners class on how to decorate. I will provide 6 cookies and royal icing for decorating. Each month will have a different theme that I have preplanned. (September-fall, October- Halloween, November-Thanksgiving, December- Christmas) This is a beginners class so everyone is welcome! Check out my website at bakedbycam.com 

Instructor: Casey Marsh - Casey fell in love with baking years ago while baking annual Christmas cookies with her mother and grandmother.  She has always been a creative and artistic person (who also  LOVES to feed people) so it only made sense that she start a business doing just that! She is a fully licensed home baker. She completed the baking and pastry associates program at York County Community College, but the majority of her skills are self taught.
