NORWAY — The Cancer Resource Center of Western Maine has partnered with two local organizations in order to provide free participation for cancer survivors and their caregivers in their classes.
Moving Freely, a class offered through Healthy Oxford Hills, meets at 9 a.m. Mondays at Norway Town Office and chair-based yoga meets at 10 a.m. Mondays and Wednesdays at Caswell Conservancy Center in Harrison. Those who would like to participate should arrive a little early for their first class to register.
The center also will have two Kayaking for Wellness paddles in August, both at 4 p.m. on Wednesdays Aug. 14 and 21, at Norway Lake. Those participating should meet at the fishing spot on Crockett Ridge Road.
The center also offers support groups, rally groups for men, exercise and other activities.
Drop in hours are 3 to 6 p.m. Tuesday and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday and Friday. Volunteers are available to provide comfort items such as port protectors, wigs, hats, pillows or find resources. There are also pamphlets and a lending library.
The center is also a place to enjoy a cup of coffee or tea, chat with a volunteer or take time for yourself by participating in scheduled programs. Activities such as coloring, knitting and games are available at all times.
