Seniors from across Bay Village and surrounding communities crowded into the Dwyer Memorial Senior Center on Aug. 11 for the Bay Community Services Department’s annual Senior Living & Health Expo.
Featuring 20 vendors representing area senior living facilities and home care organizations, as well as free medical screenings, the expo offered an abundance of health-related information and services.
The event was a win-win for attendees as well as the senior center, which raised $600 from vendor fees to support activities and transportation for older adults, and outreach services for those in need.
