Memories of the elderly in Milín

Typ: Community Seniors

We sometimes see the oldest generation as people who need help, lost in today's flood of information, people we have written off. The Dr. E. Bořický Library in Milín is attempting to prove the exact opposite by talking to local senior citizens about their lives, which are often the source of lots of interesting information and stories. This stops the elderly from feeling that they are unnecessary, and they can help enrich the local community with a history they may know nothing about. This programme has turned into a series published under the title "Lidová vzpomínková kronika" (People's Commemorative Chronicle) in special addendums to the Milín Newsletter (4 times a year with every new season).
