It’s not a symposium. It’s not a health fair.
It’s Seniorpalooza ‘24!
An explosion of education, resources, and connections to support the health, wellness, safety, and belonging of UA’s older residents (and beyond)!
The Upper Arlington Commission on Aging dreams of a future where resources are seamlessly connected, offering peace and support in this season of life, with speakers sharing valuable knowledge and insight. This is a step in that direction.
September is Emergency Preparedness Month. As supplies permit, attendees will receive an Emergency Preparedness Bag and the important File of Life.
Come for all of our speakers (our vote!) or pick and choose:
10-10:45 Exercise is Medicine: How to Increase Longevity
11-11:45 Healthy Minds, Healthy Aging: A Holistic Approach
12:45 – 1:30 Emergency Preparedness Panel
1:45 – 2:30 Scams that scare our Seniors
Before and after (not during!) our speakers, have your blood pressure, balance, and more checked!
Gather information from and connections with more than 10 different organizations including: Alzheimer’s Associations, COAAA, Franklin County Office on Aging, OhioHealth, The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, OSHIIP, Syntero, and UA CARES.
Your advanced registration helps us better plan and prepare! Do so online, by email: ed@AgingInUA.org, or by phone: 614.583.5326
This project was funded by a grant from the funds at the Upper Arlington Community Foundation, made possible by generous donors since 2003.
