Spring Senior LinkAge Line® Outreach
Robin Thompson, Information & Assistance Director
Spring is the time of year that we can say good bye to cold dark winter and hello to those warm sunny spring days. This is also the time of year that our Senior LinkAge Line® staff and volunteers like to focus on community outreach. People look forward to getting out and enjoying various community events. I have heard some describe the free services provided by the Senior LinkAge Line® as the best kept secret in the state of Minnesota. These events give us an opportunity to share how we can help older adults and their families. Below is a sampling of events we will be hosting or attending this spring:
- 50+ Lifestyle Expo in Mankato
- Living Your Best Life event in Worthington
- Lower Sioux Wellness Fair and 5K in Morton
- 2017 Spring Dementia Event in Redwood Falls
- Bluestone Spring Staff Appreciation event
