A-BnC Parties and More, Inc. & SAGESofBG | Senior Adults Growing and Exploring

SAGESofBG is a group of seniors 60+ which started in 2017. Initially, most members were from the greater Buffalo Grove, IL area. But membership has expanded to include other states as well and even Canada!

At the onset, we met in person twice monthly to discuss issues and share information and knowledge about retirement, listen to interesting speakers, plan social gatherings and volunteer events, etc. We also frequently met for social and volunteer events. Thanks to our sponsors, we were able to offer our meetings and refreshments to all seniors free.

In-person meetings were suspended after March 12th, 2020 when we were required to shelter in place by our governor. On March 15th, we started publishing information and updates about COVID-19 on our website blog. We also highlight activities and events, local civic and governmental resources and happenings, offer music and funny videos to make all visitors laugh. Important announcements are shared.

In April 2020 the group started meeting on Thursdays at 10:00 AM for weekly Zoom meetings. We now meet every 2nd and 4th Thursday of each month (except for holidays). We have discussions, presentations and guest speakers.

Judy and I facilitate and moderate the group and offer various programs and diversities.

In 2020 we presented "1968 - Those Were The Days". In early 2021 we had several trivia contests here on Eventbrite which focused on the 60's and 70's.

Now we are bringing you free online Zoom classes to help adults 60+ increase their competency with technology one-on-one. Older adults helping older adults!

We also offer us-and-you private Zoom classes on technology topics you need assistance with. Sign up for a class at https://sagesofbg---older-adults-60.square.site/

We'll even help you get more comfortable using Zoom if you need to.

Call us at 708.762.3259 with ideas or suggestions. We'd love to hear from you!

The vast majority of what we offer is FREE to seniors. It's our way of paying back for our blessings. We only charge fees when we do work specific to your request.
