Who said reaching the age of retirement had to be boring? The 2019 seniors’ expo
The 2019 seniors expo was sen(ior)-sational. It was light bright happy and FREE. And when I say free, I MEAN FREE. Everything at the expo was completely FREE and there was even GIVEAWAYS – Freebies! WOOO.
23 informative stalls
In the foyer upstairs is where all the seniors’ suited stall action was happening! And my oh my, what a display of chipper seniors enjoying the best of senior-ism (should be a word!). The foyer held a total of 23 stalls which were all focussed on promoting the better health and longevity of our wonderful senior community! And not only was the expo a popular hit for seniors, but it was quite a hoot for those
Sen(ior)sational activities
The foyer wasn’t the only place which was red carpeted for our wonderful seniors, but our Byron Theatre also held all types of great activities and shows dedicated to this memorable event! Sen(ior)sational! Wow, the senior centred line up was seriously senior – rific! There was a Drumming Circle, Chair Yoga, Crystal Singing Bowls, comedy acts, talks, Bay singers and ukuleles and MOREEEEEEE. Some attendees even stayed in the theatre for the entire day. Yep, it was THAT good.
Combine the 23 stalls of downright fun, a theatre full of performances, giveaways and smiling PEOPLE and et voilà you have the 2019 seniors expo!
Anyone who may have missed this incredible event, the Byron Community Centre offers activities for seniors on a weekly basis. Calling all seniors! Think chair yoga, Ukulele classes and drumming and then think the Byron Community Centre! A place where the senior community can come together!
SENIOR-SATIONAL!
