Oklahoma senior citizens, caregivers and those interested in matters affecting aging Oklahomans are invited to the State Capitol for Senior Day on March 11. Attendees will have the opportunity to share ideas, needs and concerns with their state lawmakers, visit with organizations and state agencies to learn about services for older Oklahomans, and learn about current legislation that may affect older Oklahomans.
Attendees can arrive starting at 8:30 a.m. and sign in at the secondfloor rotunda. Volunteers and signs will guide the way. The Senior Day session in the House chamber, fourth floor, begins at 10 a.m. with guest speakers. The event will run from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the State Capitol, 2300 N. Lincoln Blvd., Oklahoma City. The event is free to attend. All are welcome.
All individuals and groups planning to attend are encouraged to register on the Oklahoma Alliance on Aging website’s Events page, but it is not required. Nonprofit organizations requesting an exhibit table, and those interested in sponsoring, may use the registration link to apply.
