NOT TOO LATE TO REGISTER FOR SENIOR EXPO 2007

HARRISBURG, SEPT. 20 – State Sen. Connie Williams reminds older adults in the 17th Senatorial District that it is not too late to register for the 2007 Senior Expo, which will be held from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 4th at Plymouth Meeting Mall.

"I've heard from a number of people who plan to attend, but am still accepting reservations," Williams said. "I look forward to Senior Expo each year, because it provides a unique one-stop shop opportunity for older adults to obtain information and access resources that they can use. Plus, the event gives me an opportunity to spend time with my constituents. I hope people will take the time to come up and meet me at the Expo."

A variety of exhibits and information will be available for everyone who attends. According to Williams, among those slated to participate are county, state and federal agencies that deal with consumer protection, health care, Social Security, transportation, public safety and much more.

Those who attend will be treated to a complimentary lunch and door prizes.

The expo is free to all older adults in the 17th Senatorial District. Those who plan to attend are asked to RSVP to one of Williams’ offices – in King of Prussia at 610-992-9790 or in Havertown at 610-853-5433.

The Plymouth Meeting Mall is on Germantown Pike, a quarter mile west of the Turnpike/I-476 Interchange. People are asked to use the “Storehouse Furniture” entrance, across from the old Ikea.
