Granite Hill Estates Adds Two More Life Enrichment Sessions

"Changing Forests of Maine" on August 23; "Architecture and You and Me" on September 13


HALLOWELL, ME--(Marketwire - August 13, 2010) -  Granite Hill Estates (GHE) has added two more sessions to its Life Enrichment Series, dedicated to personal, intellectual, and spiritual enrichment. The first session -- "The Changing Forests of Maine" -- will be presented on Monday, August 23, at 2:00 p.m. The second session -- "Architecture and You and Me" -- will be conducted on Monday, September 13, at 11:00 a.m. Both sessions will be held in the Media Room at Granite Hill Estates.

"We're so gratified at the response to our Life Enrichment Series," said Jennifer Fleck Executive Director at Granite Hill Estates. "We've always seen Granite Hill as a community, rather than just a retirement community. We're very grateful for the way in which greater Hallowell takes part in Life Enrichment and other events here. We had almost 400 people attend our Garden Tour in June. And we're looking forward to all of our events this fall."

"The Changing Forests of Maine" will be presented by Bob Bond, former head of the forestry program at Penn State University and the community resident director at Granite Hill Estates. "Architecture and You and Me" will be presented by Ken Barnard, a former practicing architect and a resident at Granite Hill, who's also active in the University of Maine at Augusta Senior College (UMASC).
