Champaign, Ill. (WCIA)
Clark-Lindsey Brought “Celebrate Aging Week” to Champaign County six years ago. It grew so much each year, that one week was just not enough!
Happening In Your Community This Year, four quarterly events designed for people who are 55 and better. Sara Hawkins with Clark-Lindsey and Dr. Jacob Sosnoff, with U of I are here.
Here’s more from our guests:
For the past 6 years, we’ve hosted Celebrate Aging Week during the last week of September. The purpose is to celebrate aging and active lifestyles through fun-filled engaging community events aimed at people who are 55 and better. It’s gone so well each year, we decided Celebrating Aging is something we should do all year long…not just one week a year! We had a carnival this past spring, and this past summer a happy hour, and Now Health Matters Day this fall.
