Orland Township’s Senior Health Fair celebrates Older American Month

Orland Township to hold Senior Health Fair in May in recognizance of Older Americans Month

Orland Township invites local seniors to take part in the month-long celebration of Older Americans Month.

Just as every person is unique, so too is how they age and how they choose to do it – and there is no “right” way.

That’s why the theme for Older Americans Month 2022 is Age My Way.

Orland Township will host a FREE Senior Health Fair on Wednesday, May 25, from 9 a.m. until noon at Orland Township, 14807 S. Ravinia Ave., Orland Park. Several local organizations will be on site with giveaways, raffle prizes and senior related information.
