Seniors in DeWitt County and surrounding areas always looked forward to the Senior Academy programs hosted by the DeWitt County TRIAD.
COVID put those on hold for a few years but they are returning. On the WHOW Morning Show Tuesday, TRIAD President Connie Unruh indicates these are held the first three Thursdays, this year in Farmer City, and are free to people of all ages. The two-hour seminars offer a great deal of relevant information to today's seniors.
The Senior Academy seminars are the first three Thursdays in August from 9:30 am to 11:30 am. Unruh says things get started this week with some great presenters that have some really good information.
The program for August 10 has Unruh addressing seniors regarding qualifying for Medicaid and spending. Additionally, the program addresses seniors in a nursing home and their rights.
The final program, set for August 17, will hear from Tony Harris again regarding security cameras and their ease of use. Additionally, Clinton attorney Bryce Lynch will discuss legal issues with seniors. Unruh indicates if you can make only one seminar, this is the one to attend.
Unruh reminds the program is absolutely free and Unruh says you can simply show up to these events in Farmer City the first three Thursdays from 9:30 am to 11:30 am.
