You’ll be able to attend on the following dates: Wednesday, August 19; Wednesday, September 9; and Wednesday, September 30. On each date, you can join by simply going to www.ssseva.org and clicking on the homepage link for SUMMER SERIES.

The series’ kickoff on August 19 will occur from 11:00 to 11:30 a.m. and will feature various keynote speakers, including Dr. Alan Wagner, Carolyn Harper, and Emily A. Martin. Dr. Wagner, founder of the Wagner Macula & Retina Center, will take the lead on the “Vision Health As We Age” segment. Harper, a Zumba instructor, will discuss the importance of dance and exercise in her “Movement Matters!” presentation. Additionally, Martin (Esq. Hook Law) will discuss why stimulus payments belong to you, and not the nursing home. If these speakers appeal to you, there will be many more from the event’s sponsors, such as AARP, Sight Forever, and Anthem HealthKeepers Plus.
