Derby Library to host cooking demo, Medicare presentation

DERBY - The Derby Public Library has scheduled a cooking demo at 6:30 p.m. Sept. 29. 

The topic will be Fun with Fungi!  

In recognition of National Mushroom Month, Stacey Ference of Savour Catering will show participants how to make tasty dishes using a variety of low-calorie and nutrient-rich mushrooms.

There will be samples of all demonstrated foods. The class is for ages 18 and older.  

Registration is required.  

Medicare Overview

The Library will host a Medicare Overview program at 6:30 p.m. Sept. 30. 

Thomas Maercklein, an independent agent/broker with more than 25 years of experience, will explain the ins and outs of Medicare plans and how they work.  

With Medicare enrollment beginning in October, this is the perfect time for seniors to prepare before they have to make decisions. 

This is also a great opportunity for seniors who are already in the Medicare program to come and direct questions to an expert.  

This event is only for educational purposes and no plan-specific benefits and details will be shared. 

 Registration is requested.

For more information on either of the above programs, stop by the Library at 313 Elizabeth St., call 203 736-1482 or visit www.derbypubliclibrary.org.
