Reverse Annuity Mortgages<br />
Reverse Annuity Mortgage (RAM) programs are loans<br />
which allow homeowners, who need extra money, to tap<br />
the equity in their homes. Unlike regular home-equity<br />
loans, there is no need for the borrower to make monthly<br />
payments to the lender. Repayment may either be made<br />
on a pre-determined date or the date when the<br />
homeowner ceases to occupy the home. The lender<br />
generally makes monthly payments to the borrower,<br />
although lump sum loans and lines <strong>of</strong> credit can sometimes<br />
also be arranged (and the borrower will still not need to<br />
make monthly payments). You can link to the CHFA<br />
website at www.chfa.org/Elderly/elderly.asp<br />
for more<br />
information on properties and borrowers that are eligible<br />
or you can call directly Single Family Underwriting at 860-<br />
571-3502.<br />
MEDICARE OPEN<br />
ENROLLMENT<br />
Open Enrollment for Medicare begins October<br />

Medicare Advantage plan or Medicare Part D<br />
plan this is your opportunity. Please contact<br />
Human Services at 860-648-6361 and ask to<br />
speak to a CHOICES certified counselor. All<br />
sessions are by appointment only and you will<br />
be asked to provide an accurate list <strong>of</strong> your<br />
medications so that a counselor can find a plan<br />
that best suites your needs. CHOICES<br />
counselors provide free and unbiased insurance<br />
information.<br />

The CARES group activities are designed to promote wellness for those seniors who<br />
are in need <strong>of</strong> enhancement and maintenance <strong>of</strong> productivity in socialization, mobility,<br />
cognition and quality <strong>of</strong> life.<br />
October will be the month <strong>of</strong> haunting mysteries for the CARES group. Mentally stimulating<br />
Who Am I?, Who Done It?, and other "Solve" it activities will challenge our members as well as a<br />
Mystery Biography, "Boo-tiful" clues, and Harvest Moon word mining. To top <strong>of</strong>f the month, CARES<br />
will embark on a Mystery Trip before the frosts <strong>of</strong> the fall months make travel more difficult.<br />
An episode <strong>of</strong> Murder She Wrote, with the wonderfully talented Angela Landsbury, will show<br />
how she solves a criminal investigation. Also, this being the anniversary year <strong>of</strong> the premiere<br />
<strong>of</strong> The Wizard <strong>of</strong> Oz, we will "follow the yellow brick road" with Judy Garland and the<br />
entertaining characters to the Land <strong>of</strong> Oz.<br />
