WISCONSIN RAPIDS — With so many things in life, you don’t know about it until you need it. That’s true at many ages and stages – including getting older.
Hilltop Grand Village will host a series of monthly lectures designed to help everyone learn more about a variety of topics.
Let’s Learn Together will feature community members talking about their areas of expertise. These presentations are free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served, and there will be a time for questions.
Upcoming sessions include:
- Mike Grotefend of Alpine Home Medical Equipment will talk about types of home medical supplies and how they can make your life easier and safer. He will show equipment you might not know about and talk about how home medical supplies can help you following illness or injury as well as how equipment can be paid for. His presentation will be at 2 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 26.

What can you do with those boxes of home movies and old photos? As you clean out the attic, basement or storage room, don’t just put them back on the shelf. Instead, give them new life. Dan Smith of WinterSpring Studios will show examples of old
home movies edited into a DVD or digital file to play on a computer or tablet. If photos have been damaged by heat, water or time, he can restore them digitally, then make new copies to display. He will show you how your family treasures can be made new at 10 a.m. Friday, Feb. 24.
- When your joints hurt, you’re not at your best. Kathleen Schultz, RN, is the Joint Care coordinator at Aspirus Riverview Hospital. She will talk about joint health and arthritis treatment options available locally. You’ll have time to ask questions, too, when she presents at 10:30 a.m. Thursday, March 23.
Future sessions will include elder law, financial planning later in life, long-term care insurance, the importance of health care power of attorney and meditation, among others.
All programs will be held at Hilltop Grand Village, 1400 24th St. S. Enter by Home Depot. There is no charge to attend and no obligation. The sessions are open to everyone. With questions, call Mystique at 715-423-7400 or email mystique@hilltopgrandvillage.com.
