Welcome to the 2015 Senior and Caregiver Expo!!!

VENDORS We have over 40 vendors in the gym to provide information and services to you. They include non-profits, local service agencies, businesses, and some of your State and Federal elected officials. Stop by their booths and see what they have to offer. If you need help finding a particular vendor, where the classes are at, or anything else, please look for someone wearing a Senior Coordinating Council badge. They will be more than happy to help you. The Expo will run from 8:30am to 1pm and the vendor booths will be open during the entire time. EXPIRED MEDS, OLD EYEGLASSES & HEARING AIDS DROP BOXES If you brought expired medications with you to dispose of, the drop box is at the Newaygo County Partners in Prevention and Recovery booth. The Lions Club also have boxes for you to dispose of your old eyeglasses and hearing aids.
