Get a Grip Marmora is offering free pairs of ice cleat boot
grippers to seniors at Marmora and Lake Public Library to
increase the mobility and reduce social isolation of seniors
during the winter months. This program is free for seniors 55

others to buy a pair and pay it forward with donations

your boots. They stay on your boots, are easy to adjust, and
don’t need to be removed when entering a building. The

program. With your help we plan to get a pair of ice cleat boot
grippers out to every senior in Marmora as our program
expands annually. For more information, please contact Kathy

Andrew Gilchrist, who graced us with an author talk last
winter, and he joined us on November 26th to share some
of his insights into the writing process. He talked about
everything from inspiration to editing to publication. He
even took a few minutes to run some of his own work
through an editing software program. Fascinating stuff!!
