MILTON — RSVP of Santa Rosa County and Santa Rosa Medical Center seek vendors for the 2018 Senior Expo and Health Fair. Businesses and community service groups can now reserve space for the event, which is set 8 a.m. to noon March 15 at the Guy Thompson Community Center.

"This year’s Expo and Health Fair will be broken down to two parts, with members of the Santa Rosa Medical Center staff offering free health screenings and information on specific health issues currently facing seniors," a media release states. "While this is going on, you can be one of the local businesses and community organizations designed to help serve older residents in the Santa Rosa, Escambia, and Okaloosa county areas."

Vendors can use booths to hand out information, meet seniors face to face, or give items that can assist seniors in their daily lives. They also can present giveaways to meet future customers.

The fair is hosted by the Retired Senior Volunteer Program, city of Milton and Woodmen Life and is supported by Santa Rosa Medical Center, but more sponsorship opportunities remain if your company or organization would like to take a more active/leadership role in this annual event.

Contact Faye Henry, with the Retired Senior Volunteer Program, at 983-5220 for more information.
