Affordable Health Care information from BeWellNM

BeWell New Mexico will be hosting two telephone town halls with constituents in our area. 

 

There is still a lot of confusion in the marketplace about how to obtain health insurance.  The tele-town halls reach thousands of New Mexicans and provide an excellent opportunity to educate and guide people who need help during the enrollment period.

The English tele-town hall will take place on Wednesday December 7, 2016 at 7pm.

The Spanish tele-town hall will take place on Thursday December 8, 2016 at 7pm.

The calls will be hosted by former KOAT-TV news anchor Nelson Martinez, and representatives from beWellnm will be available to answer questions from people who participate.

Compuclinic: helping older adults on their computers & phones. At ENMU-Ruidoso on Thursdays

The first "Compuclinic"  (brand new name)  was a success with 5 students last Thursday.  Please check us out on Thursdays in the computer lab at ENMU-Ruidoso starting at 10am. Depending on interest, the session can last up to two hours.

This coming Thursday, November 17, we will start with a short video or lecture on terminology, followed by individual Q&A. The beauty of such an informal tutorial model is that we all help each other. Or, some of us help others, such as a fellow student convinced me to clean up my Face Book and it is working. 

Just a reminder. Bring your own device or use ENMU's computers.

The class is in the computer lab. 

Silas Laspada offers an informal tutoring session for us to practice our skills and to have our questions answered on computers or our iphones. Silas is a home school student who has volunteered to help us with this project. Small donations accepted for our instructor, but are optional.

Creative Aging wants to help older adults become as compatible with the digital world. Thank you for your consideration of this weekly tutorial session. 

ENMU is giving us the space & time to learn at our own pace and be supportive toward one another in the process.

The class will start at 10am and go for an hour or more depending on interest.

Hope to see you there.

So please check us out. Call or email with any questions.

Fort Stanton Museum needs volunteers

Significant need exists for volunteers at the Ft. Stanton Museum, which is located at Ft. Stanton, N.M. Currently, the museum is open seven days a week, and there are two shifts available: from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.

The duties that volunteers perform are basic and include welcoming visitors to the museum, providing the visitors with a short history/introduction about the museum (which, of course, you would first learn about), starting up a movie, and opening and/or closing the museum.

Right now, the need is greatest for weekend and mid-week volunteers and staff will work with you to try to accommodate your preference for the days and times you wish to serve.  

If you are interested in this volunteer opportunity, please feel free to contact the following individuals to let them know:

Bill Jeffrey, Ft. Stanton Volunteer Coordinator

Home: 575-354-3424

Cell:      575-973-0369

Larry Pope, Historic Site Lead Ranger

Office: 575-354-2250

Cell:      505-469-7797

 Spread the word about this volunteer opportunity to other RSVP volunteers or persons who may be interested in volunteering at Ft. Stanton.
