Tomorrow, November 1, marks the beginning of National Family Caregiving Month. If you or someone you know are helping to care for an aging loved one living in Kent County - from near or afar — and would like support with things like transportation, shopping, and small household projects, call HomePorts about a membership for them today! It’s what we do every day of the year. So that you and they can be healthy and at peace. The attached article is chock-full of the latest research on Caregiving in the US.

We DID it! Yesterday marked HomePorts' first volunteer-provided ride to Easton for a doctor visit for one of our members!! Getting to Easton for even routine medical care is becoming more and more important to so many residents of Kent County. We're proud to be part of the solution, and to offer this service to our members. If you know someone who could benefit from Easton transportation, please send them our way! We're standing by to discuss all the benefits of a HomePorts membership.

Whew, it was a chilly one at the Farmers Market this past Saturday morning — the kind of cold that makes you wish you’d brought your blankie!

Lucky for our Board VP Gale, Drenning, she had a bin of cozy quilts on hand — all made with love by our very own Olde Town Quilters right here in Chestertown. These talented ladies create the most beautiful quilts and even turn their leftover scraps into sweet lap blankets for our new members.

Come say hi at the Farmers Market every other Saturday and see what we’re up to! Or give us a call at 443-480-0940 — we’re always happy to share what’s happening (and maybe wrap you up in a little warmth while we’re at it).
