CPL's First Chapter featuring "Goosebumps: The Haunted Mask" by R.L. Stine.

How ugly is Carly Beth's Halloween mask? It's so ugly that it almost scared her little brother to death. So terrifying that even her friends are totally freaked out by it.

It's the best Halloween mask ever. It's everything Carly Beth hoped it would be. And more.

Maybe too much more. Because Halloween is almost over.

And Carly Beth is still wearing that special mask...

Recent research shows that up to 45% of dementia cases can be prevented by addressing risk factors throughout our lives. In this illuminating lecture, Dr. Stephanie Rogers will identify actionable, easy-to-understand steps, like nurturing your friendships, prioritizing physical activity, and caring for your hearing, that meaningfully protect our cognitive health. Whether you are looking to safeguard your own mind or support a loved one, you will learn why it is never too early, or too late, to take action.
This lecture is part of our “Age Well” series, designed to provide valuable insights, expert guidance, and practical tools for navigating the aging journey with confidence.
