The newest Golden Gazette is here!

The Golden Gazette is published each month by the Fairfax County Adult and Aging Services. It is one of the most comprehensive publications in the area that covers events and topics seniors care about.  You can view and download the newest edition here!

This month’s edition includes a feature on how to start a memoir, valuable advice from a locksmith, a profile on RSVP partner GrandInvolve and a list of current volunteer needs with another great RSVP volunteer partner, Volunteer Solutions.

For your friends who have not become part of RSVP-Northern Virginia, make sure they see page 21 of the February Gazette that lists all of our RSVP “Art of Volunteering ” seminars scheduled for February.

In addition to being informative, the Golden Gazette is also accessible. You can get free printed copies at you local Fairfax County library and or at your local county  senior center. You can also  pick up one at all RSVP new volunteer seminars, including our next session Feb. 3 in. McLean.
