BELLOWS FALLS — Senior Solutions, Area Agency on Aging for Southeastern Vermont in partnership with Our Place Drop-In Center, Parks Place Community Resource Center, and the Bellows Falls Senior Center will be hosting the Second Annual Age Successfully, A Health & Benefits Fair on Friday, Sept. 20, at the Waypoint Center from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. This event is free and open to the public, and there will be a free BBQ.

This is an opportunity for older Vermonters to learn about and sign up for wellness-based benefits and services with over 30 exhibitors scheduled to appear. Nearly 200 area seniors have come to previous fairs to learn about the goods and services available in the community.

Older Vermonters and their caregivers in the community often are unaware of all the opportunities that are available to them. This fair offers a “one-stop shop” to find the services best suited for their needs. Exhibitors this year include Senior Solutions, One Place Drop-In Center, Bellows Falls Senior Center, AARP, Assistive Technology Services from the State of Vermont, Athena Advocacy, Bayada Hospice, Dartmouth Cancer Center Community Outreach and Engagement, Economic Services Division of the Department of Child and Family Services, FCP Live-In Homecare, Greater Falls Connections, Green Mountain RSVP, HCRS, Lincoln Street, My DNR Wish, NorthStar Health, Parks Place, Putney Community Cares, Rockingham Arts & Museum Project, Rockingham Library, Sharing Housing, Tai Chi Vermont, Turning Point, US Department of Veterans Affairs, Vermont Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired, Vermont Department of Health, Vermont Legal Aid, Visiting Angels, Visiting Nurses, and More.
