Help Needed: Stroke Survivor Dance Therapy??

Hello Everyone,

Dedreanna Scott is pursuing a doctorate in Occupational Therapy at MUSC and is looking for help from our group. She's asked for those willing to take a brief survey and possibly be interviewed on a treatment idea involving dance. Please see her message below and help out if you have interest. Have a great day!!

Ready For a Little Fun?

Hello Everyone,

When our stroke support group was formed, one of the initial suggestions is that we carve out time for our group to meet in a social setting. I think it's time to stick our big toe in the "going out for a little fun" pool.

I'd like to suggest our October meeting take place at the Swig and Swine restaurant in Summerville (Old Trolly & Dorchester). This venue has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating and appears to be wheelchair friendly. The manager has even agreed to block a few tables for our group. 

Here are the details:

Stroke Support Group Outing

Swig and Swine

1990 Old Trolley Rd, Summerville, SC 29485

5:15 PM - TBD

Please come out and join us for an hour or two of good food and drink, some fellowship, and maybe make a new friend or two. All are invited (family, friends, loved ones).

So that I can provide an estimate to the restaurant management for the number of tables/chairs to reserve, please let me know if you plan on attending.
