Today in class, we got rolling again on the HAP's. There are 6 different projects going on, and each of them are heading in a direction towards positive impact in the senior communities we are setting out to serve. My group is setting out to organize an intergenerational walkathon, and we are going to call it "Walk of Life". We have a general location and overarching plan for guidance, but no specifics have been reached. We are going to utilize the knowledge from a past Life Course Scholar and start talking to different social walking groups to see if they would be interested in participating and spreading the word. There are many elder walking clubs in San Diego, and we hope to bring in as many of them as we can for this event. On another note, I am extremely excited for my individual endeavor of making a rap/motivational video to address the topic of ageism, and how reverse the stereotypes against aging. Aging is a good thing because your glass is continually becoming more full, and your abundance of knowledge and experience is something that should be celebrated. I am looking forward to this quarter!
