7. Check with your local
governmental body (i.e., city or county) for educational
opportunities. My home
county offers regular courses in all kinds of interests for
nominal fees. They even publish a flyer twice a year in
the local newspaper listing the courses they offer.
If you have a skill or ability,
consider teaching a
class for your local community college or city/county
program! I have seen courses offered in everything from ethnic
cooking to esoteric dance. If you have something to offer, step
up and offer it! Our society so much values the young over the
elderly; that is unfortunate, because
we older people have so
much more to
offer. Even if it's a basic survival skill, someone can
benefit from you sharing your knowledge!
