Greetings!

What are we all about?
This eNewsletter is about sharing and learning about senior resources and issues through the Internet and ultimately connecting older consumers with resources and providers so they can age well. Surfing the Internet to research is great but remember to use the tried and true technique of picking up the phone and calling. And if your search involved the Seniors Resource Guide website please let the provider know that.

Looking for Local Senior Events?     

Local senior fairs, expos and small seminars are excellent sources for learning about senior resources and so are events hosted by local senior housing providers. If you are looking for local senior-oriented events, type "Senior Events" "Your City" "State" or "Senior News" "Your City" "State" in your favorite search engine and browse the results.

Try some variations on the search phrase, even using your county or nearby larger cities and always include your state. Many organizations that sponsor large and small local senior fairs and expos have websites and with this technique the events may appear in the regular search results.

And if you find a company through our network of websites please let them know that you found them through Seniors Resource Guide.com - thank you!
