LEWISTON — The popular Les Troubadours will perform for this month’s La Rencontre (“the gathering”) at 11:25 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 9, at the Gendron Franco Center, 46 Cedar St.
La Rencontre is in no way restricted to French-speakers or even those of Franco descent. All are welcome to attend this fun monthly meal and event as long as spots remain open. The meal will be chicken fricassee.
After lunch, Dr. Beata A. Bajgierowicz, a cardiologist at Central Maine Heart & Vascular Institute will present “Hypertension (high blood pressure) Stop It, Control It” as part of the “Healthy Gathering” series presented by Central Maine Community College and St. Mary’s Hospital.
Bajgierowicz will talk about the importance of reducing and managing blood pressure and how it can lower the likelihood of heart attack, stroke and death.
