For Immediate Release JUNE SENIORS’ SEMINARS HUGE SUCCESS (City of Kawartha Lakes, Ontario) During the last week of June, which is Seniors’ Month in Ontario, MPP Laurie Scott teamed up with MP Barry Devolin to sponsor three seminars dedicated to seniors.
“Our third annual seniors seminars were a huge success,” said Scott. “Nearly 300 seniors joined our three events in Lindsay, Beaverton and Haliburton to hear great presentations, visit information booths and discuss matters ranging from safety and security to financial planning.”
Seniors account for approximately 19 per cent of the population of the riding of Haliburton-Victoria Brock which is significantly higher the Ontario average of 13 per cent, according to Statistics Canada.
“The Ontario population is aging,” added Scott. “Understanding the valuable social role of seniors and providing opportunities for the promoting of their health, well-being and safety will not only guarantee them a better quality of life, but will help ensure all of us can benefit from their knowledge and experience.”
“Our seminars wouldn’t be the same without the help of so many local great organizations who continuously offer their support, provide valuable information. and supply take-home gifts for our seniors in attendance.” noted Scott. “I also would like to thank Ms. Judy Muzzi, Past President of the United Seniors Citizens of Ontario Inc, who once again offered so much of her time and assistance in making our 2007 Seniors’ Seminars such a great success.” - 30 - For Further Information Contact: Laurie Scott, MPP 705- 324-6654 1-800-424-2490 |
