Older Americans Month

by admin on May 11, 2010

Every year since 1963, our country has recognized May as Older Americans Month.  This celebration is meant to recognize the contributions and accomplishments that our older citizens have made to our great nation.  Ohio’s theme for this month’s observation is Age Strong! Live Strong!, and there are a number of activities taking place around the state to honor our elders, including a contest that invites citizens to share what inspires and strengthens them.  Please visit the Ohio Department of Aging website at http://aging.ohio.gov/news/olderamericansmonth/ to learn about all the events taking place.
