For our PWS Community: October Virtual Social Hours Announced

October 15, 2020

To our Prader-Willi syndrome community, we invite you to mark your calendars for Latham’s upcoming Social Hours – one for students and one for adults – which will include fun dancing, sing-a-longs, and Halloween-costume sharing for those who’d like to participate.   

Director of National Outreach Katrina Fryklund noted, “In our recent Social Hour Talent Shows, we were hugely impressed by the vocal talents of the kids and the adults. Moreover, it was tremendous to see the kids supporting one another and dancing to the beat of the music.”  Katrina and Patrice shared this tip: “During Latham Centers’ weekly online Storytimes, we end with a ‘Music Mindfulness.’ Music Mindfulness videos on YouTube for people of all ages range from “freeze dances” to popular hits and dance-a-longs through Kidzbop; it is a great resource!”

• Student PWS Social Hour (for Under-22): Wednesday, October 21st, from 5—6 p.m. (EST). This will be Latham’s 6th PWS Social Hour for students.

• Adult PWS Social Hour (for 22+): Thursday, October 29th, from 5—6 p.m. (EST). This will be Latham’s 4th Adult PWS Social Hour!

This month we are going to host a Group Karaoke/Sing-Along; don’t forget to wear your Halloween costumes! Whether this is your first Social Hour or you are a seasoned attendee, join us and meet people all over the country who are part of our PWS community.
