NORWAY — The Cancer Resource Center of Western Maine has scheduled both in-person and virtual classes and activities for August.
Programs are open to anyone affected by cancer, including caregivers. Masks are required for in-person events.
Kayaking on Norway Lake will be from 9 to 11 a.m. Monday Aug. 1, 8 and 15.
Participants should meet at the Pennesseewassee Park public boat launch of Route 118. Anyone impacted by cancer including patients, survivors, family members and caregivers is welcome to participate. Kayaking provides physical, social and emotional well-being and camaraderie. It can also help improve flexibility and shoulder range of motion, especially for people who have had breast cancer surgery.
A limited number of kayaks, paddles, and personal flotation devices are available.
Weekly in-person classes include Craft & Chat, Yoga Warriors and Chair Yoga. Chair Yoga is also held weekly in Harrison.
Virtually, Mindful-Based Stress Reduction is held from 9 to 10 a.m. every Thursday.
Monthly in-person groups include Women’s Monthly Cancer Support Group and Men’s Monthly Cancer Support Group, both for people experiencing any type of cancer, from diagnosis to survivorship.
Other monthly activities include wellness share and drum circle.
The center’s weekly public drop-in hours are 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday. It is also open by appointment Monday through Friday. Masks are required.
