Palmetto Bay's Senior Seminar Series Continues to Grow at a "Dizzying"Rate 
 
Greetings!

We are pleased to report that Palmetto Bay's Senior Seminar Series continues to be extremely popular among our mature residents. This month, program-partner Baptist Health is offering a discussion on "Treatment of Dizziness & Balance Disorders." As people grow older, they may have difficulty with their balance. In fact, roughly 9 percent of adults who are 65 and older report having such problems. So, whether you are affected by dizziness issues or know someone who is, be sure to make a reservation now for this informative seminar -- as it takes place tomorrow! Thank you for your continued interest in our Parks & Recreation programs. As always, please contact us with any questions, concerns, or programming ideas -- or call 305-259-1234.
