2016 Senior Living Festival Tremendous Success

  

Between 2500-3000 seniors, professionals serving seniors and advocates attended the

sixth annual Senior Living Festival this past Friday. The festival featured health screenings, information on senior programs, services and senior living communities. Free medicare

comparisons were also available. The event was essentially a one stop shop for everything senior.

“Anything you want to know about seniors, you can find it here,” said Marlene G, festival

attendee.

                                          

“This year’s festival was outstanding,” said Fran Ryan, Senior Services Roundtable.

“I think it kicked off really well, said Ryan. The Senior Services Roundtable along with the

Franklin County Office on Aging and the Central Ohio Area Agency on Aging, COAAA 

sponsored the first festival in 2011. Each year the event has grown in attendance and sponsorship.

“Thanks to the sponsors, vendors and all the attendees for another successful Senior Living

Festival,” said Janet Caldwell, Franklin County Office on Aging.

The Senior Services Roundtable is a clearinghouse of information and ideas to assist seniors

in Central Ohio. The organization promotes collaboration among public, private agencies and 

groups who serve older adults.

Join the Senior Services Roundtable, Franklin County Office on Aging and COAAA for next

year’s festival on October 27, 2017.
