Today is the researchers' 5th practice of the season; we have been busy coming up with challenges we can solve for this year's theme, senior solutions. The researchers' goal this season is to identify a struggle that senior citizens face, and find a creative solution to try and help.  We have several ideas, most of which are aimed at helping people with Alzheimer's and Dementia. Our first mentor, Mrs. Smith helped to steer us in that direction during her visit, and gave us some great ideas on some of the problems she has as a caretaker for her husband. Once we decide on a solution, we have to make a creative presentation; in the past we have done PowerPoints, skits, and even a mock- infomercial. We'll keep you posted on all of our ideas.
