Our local Triad, part of the national Triad Association, is sponsored by RSVP of Dane County, the Dane County Sheriff’s Office and the Cottage Grove Police Department, supporting and promoting senior safety and well-being.

Programs in March and April will focus on first aid techniques that can be used before the paramedics arrive. Other topics throughout the year will include “Scams, Fraud and Identity Theft” and “What’s New in Banking, among other senior issues, including the “Winter Car Safety Check” in October.

All Triad activities are free of charge and open to all members of the community.

If you have suggestions for programs of interest to seniors, please contact Diane Wiedenbeck, 839-8588, Cottage Grove Triad Chair. The next planning meeting will be April 20, 9:30 a.m. at Angelus Retirement Community. Please come to help us plan.
