Tomorrow, October 20th is the Marin Senior Fair's Silver Anniversary! Seems like just yesterday when we celebrated the Fair's 21st and 22nd anniversary with nickle and copper. What a difference a few years can make!
That's our theme at this year's Fair anyway: it's all about experience. We've been going to the Senior Fair for years, and this year we're especially excited because we've just launched a new initiative targeting older adults called "Volunteer Marin - Share Your Lifetime of Experience." We believe that older adults in Marin have a lifetime of valuable experience to offer in service to their community. Whether it's serving on a nonprofit board for a cause they've long been passionate about or getting their hands dirty at a community garden they've long wondered about, we want it to be clear: the possibilities for older adults to make a real impact in their community are endless.
So Tomorrow we'll have a booth set up with information on our new initiative and the many ways to get involved. Fair attendees will have the opportunity to sign up for the program/opportunity that fits their interests and schedule - right on the spot! Keep an eye out for our very capable volunteer outreach team, Holly Bearden, Liz Rottger and Sarah Van Dine.
The Fair will be held at the Marin Exhibit Hall, at 10 Avenue of the Flags in San Rafael, from 9am-3pm.
