General Guide 2023 – 40th Issue – Senior Edition –
It’s 2023, and this year’s issue is a milestone, General Guide 2023 – 40th Issue – Senior Edition features reasons why Albion is an “Age-Friendly” community. If you live in Albion or nearby, you received a copy of the General Guide in the Morning Star. The General Guide is available at many locations listed in the Frequently Called Numbers section of the Guide, on the last page.
The General Guide began over 9 years ago to provide multi-faceted communication channels for the greater Albion area. Now, as we simultaneously reflect on the last nine years and anticipate the year ahead, there are many stories about challenges our community has faced and exciting projects ahead.
The General Guide 2023 – 40th Issue – Senior Edition digs into how the city is collaboratively improving the quality of life by focusing on eight different areas outlined in the General Guide. This is the time of year to set our sights on goals and Albion is now officially underway in becoming part of the AARP-designated Age-Friendly Network of Communities.
The Calhoun County Senior Millage allocation raises $4M a year to provide free resources to seniors aged 60 years and older who reside in Calhoun County.
Healthcare, transportation, hearing, eyecare, home repairs, and more are covered through the Senior Millage. Learn more about the Calhoun County Senior Millage resources with links to official information, and more local senior groups at AlbionMich.net/Senior-Resources.
The last General Guide – the 2022 Spring Forward Edition encouraged readers to get outdoors for some fresh air, to smell the roses and plant a garden. Now that we have walked through all that 2022 brought, let’s explore what we have learned and how we can enjoy some of our time that we have and why the Albion area is a good place to live.
Find out more about places that can enrich your life at AlbionMich.net. There you will find maps of Albion’s public parks and stories about the Albion River Trail – connecting three major non-motorized trails across our region, state, and country. In addition, AlbionMich.net is your go-to resource for planning ahead with our Albion Google Calendar that has links to public meetings, music events, and the Albion church directory from The Recorder.
AlbionMich.net is a customized website connected to support your experience with the General Guide to Mid-Michigan.

Next week they will also be at Albion City Hall, Family Fare in Albion, Anna’s House of Flowers, the Albion Train Depot home of Mowrer Agency, Jolly Green Junction, and other locations throughout Calhoun County.
