Senior Lifestyle Showcase Saturday

The 2012 Gwinnett Senior Lifestyle Showcase is occurring on a Saturday this year and is expected to attract more senior citizens than ever. The showcase features products and services that cater to senior lifestyles. Admission is free.

The Gwinnett Council for Seniors is hosting the fourth annual showcase from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Saturday, April 21, at the Bethesda Senior Center, 225 Bethesda Church Road, in Lawrenceville.  Vendors and senior groups from across the county will have displays in the showcase.

In 2011 there were approximately 50 exhibitors participating, a 25 percent increase over the previous year, and more than 300 seniors attending. The council is anticipating a greater turnout this year.

“We are excited about this year’s event. With the movement of the event to a Saturday, we will be able to reach working seniors as well as caregivers,” said Ros Bennett, a member of the Gwinnett Council for Seniors board.
