Elderhostel @ Cedar Lakes



      In the early 80s, the Crafts Center joined Elderhostel, an international network of colleges and other institutions offering special classes for senior citizens 55 years of age and older. Last year 300 students from throughout the United States participated in the weeklong craft workshops at the Cedar Lakes Craft Center.

      A typical week starts with dinner Sunday evening and orientation. Classes are scheduled from 8:45 to 4:30 daily with special activities in the evening. Visits by local dignitaries and musicians, slide shows, and visits to local points of interest are included during the week. A graduation banquet on Thursday evening culminates the week and participants bid one another good-bye after lunch on Friday.

      Registration for these week long classes is normally handled directly by the national office of Elderhostel. The Crafts Center could also be of help in learning more about the program. Registration for local commuters is handled by the Crafts Center. The cost of a typical Elderhostel week is $462 for workshop, room, and meals.       For more information about our Elderhostel Classes, please contact Gloria Gregorich at the Cedar Lakes Crafts Center.
