services continue to grow, please join us and become an advertiser, sponsors,

Annual Aging Better
Expo
The 6th Annual Aging Better Expo is held in
late summer or early fall. The 2022 Expo will be August 31st, 8:30 am to 3:30 pm. Sponsors educate the attendees on local products,
services, and benefits at their individual tables. Elderwerks provides multiple
education seminars throughout the day. Adult children and seniors enjoy an
informative event, connect with sponsors and everyone is treated to morning
pastries, lunch and fun prizes. Please view the details and application here.

Stepping Out to Fitness
A fun, beneficial
program offering older adults and seniors the opportunity to stay fit and join
the “Elderwerks Challenge”. Following registration, participants receive a
t-shirt, swag-bag, and daily log. They join the fun and perform daily
exercises, record their efforts, and turn in their monthly log for a chance to
win a gift card. Participants who complete the quarterly log (three months) are
entered into the Grand Prize Drawing for an Apple Watch or flat screen TV.
Currently, this program occurs twice a year. Sponsors logos are included on the
t-shirts, Stepping Out for Fitness newsletter, and the monthly log.
Make a Senior Smile
Elderwerks collects
letters, art, poems, and cards to deliver to isolated and lonely seniors. We
deliver these well received notes throughout the year.
Masks for Seniors
Elderwerks will
continue to collect and distribute masks to any older adult or senior who need
them.
Thank you for your
support! For those who choose to sponsor and support Elderwerks efforts,
