Mennonite Village organizes this free, public event on our campus to bring attention to the issues that affect older adults. Our theme is “Working Together for Strong, Healthy, and Supportive Communities,” which speaks to the opportunities we have to create better care, reinforce healthier lifestyles, and improve overall quality of life.
The day’s events are free of charge and open to all. Shuttle buses will transport guests from our parking area to Lakeside Center throughout the event.
Please contact Whitney Olsen, (541) 928-7232, for information. |
