Community & Culture Forum: Connecting Our Community to Resources

At One Lincoln Park, we believe staying informed and connected is an important part of living well. As part of our Community & Culture Forum, we welcomed Doug McGarry to speak with our residents about the important work of the Area Agency on Aging, PSA 2 and the many ways they can support older adults and their families.

Ohio has 12 Area Agencies on Aging serving communities across the state, connecting older adults and caregivers with local services and resources. The Area Agency on Aging can also be a valuable resource for family members and caregivers who may have questions or simply aren't sure where to turn. They can help families navigate available services and connect them with resources that fit their needs.

We are grateful to Doug for taking the time to share this valuable information with our residents and for helping us continue to learn, connect, and support one another here at One Lincoln Park!

Have you read the latest article written by One Lincoln Park Executive Director Tricia Atwood?

Her article, “Successful Aging: Building a Longer, Healthier, More Connected Life,” is featured in the latest South CW Neighbors magazine and is also available online. Tricia shares practical insights on successful aging, emphasizing the importance of staying active, nourishing our bodies, maintaining meaningful connections, and keeping our minds engaged.

It’s a thoughtful reminder that successful aging isn’t just about adding years to life—it’s about adding life to those years.

Successful aging is about more than adding years to life. It is about adding life to those years — maintaining independence, purpose, connection and well-being as we grow older.

There’s nothing better than gathering together, trying something new, and making memories with friends. Cheers to good times and great community!

Our Better Than Ever Wellness Series continued with our Better When Staying Active event, where guests learned why staying active is so important for maintaining strength, independence, and overall well-being as we age.

We were honored to welcome Becky Cobb, founder and owner of Personally Fit, a Dayton-based personal training and wellness center. With more than 40 years of experience helping individuals improve their health and fitness, Becky is certified through ACSM, IIN, and FMS. Her passion for empowering others to live healthier, more active lives was evident as she shared practical tips, easy exercises, and simple ways seniors can build strength, improve balance, and stay active every day.

Thank you to OLP resident Dan Weiner for gifting our community a one‑of‑a‑kind fiberglass car sculpture! Originally created for the City of Kettering’s 2002 anniversary gala and painted by the Dayton Daily News Editorial Art Department, the "Car-toons" piece has found a new home on the south side of our building.

We recently unveiled the sculpture, shared a few words, enjoyed refreshments, and celebrated Dan’s generosity. It’s a wonderful addition to our campus and a reminder of the creativity and community spirit that make OLP special.

Who says motorcycles are just for the young?

Age is just a number, and one of our residents proved that adventure doesn't have an expiration date! She hopped on the back of her son's motorcycle for a ride, showing us all that you're never too old to enjoy a little excitement.

At One Lincoln Park, we love seeing our residents continue doing the things they enjoy—and maybe even surprising us along the way!

Way to ride in style!

This month, One Lincoln Park was honored to host our Community & Culture Forum, "Welcoming Returning Citizens: Why It Matters."

We were privileged to welcome representatives from the Montgomery County Office of Reentry, along with U.S. District Court Judge Walter H. Rice, Magistrate Bonnie Beaman Rice (Ret.), Miamisburg Chief of Police, and a Dayton business owner who shared his own inspiring journey through the program.

The panel discussed the challenges individuals face when returning to the community after incarceration, the importance of second chances, and how collaboration, support, and opportunity can help reduce recidivism and build stronger, safer communities.

At One Lincoln Park, we believe meaningful conversations like these help us better understand the world around us and foster a culture of compassion, lifelong learning, and connection. Thank you to all of our speakers for sharing your knowledge, experiences, and perspectives with our residents.
