Seminars at Hadley Presents:

Celebrating the 100th Birthday of the National Parks

Date: Wednesday, February 8, 2017
Time: 10:00 AM CST; 16:00 GMT

What an incredible treasure we have in our U.S. National Park System! There are over 400 national parks across our vast country ranging from large ones that include thousands of acres, to smaller monuments in urban areas. Today, we hope to encourage you to consider visiting a national park or maybe just read more about them.

Join Seminars at Hadley as panelists Cathy Pasinski, Judy Greene and Shari Burton talk about this wonderful travel opportunity and share their personal experiences in several national parks such as Grand Canyon, Rocky Mountain, Zion and more.

Dawn Turco, Hadley Senior Vice President and member of the Seminars at Hadley team, will moderate this 60-minute discussion. A question and answer session will be included as part of this audio seminar.

Seminars at Hadley Presents:
Low Vision Focus @ Hadley Presents: Knitting for Fun and Fulfillment

Seminar Date: Friday, February 17, 2017

Seminar Time: 12:00 PM CST; 18:00 GMT

Knitting is fun, relaxing and rewarding. It’s a craft you can take anywhere and enjoy while chatting with friends, listening to an audiobook, or just daydreaming! Knitters know that special thrill that comes with holding something they’ve made with their own two hands.

Join Low Vision Focus @ Hadley as Caitlyn Snyder, Certified Vision Rehabilitation Therapist, and Mary Zemlick, Occupational Therapist and Orientation and Mobility Specialist, discuss how to enjoy knitting with low vision. They’ll be discussing equipment and terminology, techniques for rake knitting, knitting in the round and using straight needles. They’ll also share their expertise on where to find accessible knitting patterns and how to find local knitting groups. If you’ve ever wanted to begin or resume this wonderful hobby, this is the webinar for you!

Ed Haines, Hadley Instructor and member of the Seminars at Hadley team, will moderate this 60-minute discussion. A question and answer session will be included as part of this audio seminar.
