Nearly 100 businesses will fill the exhibit hall with information on everything to do with being a senior, becoming a senior and caring for a senior.

There will also be a senior fashion show presented by Coldwater Creek. “Along with all the information that is available at the expo for Seniors and family members it’s important to us that we make the event festive and fun for our attendees. This year’s musical line-up features a wide variety of music seniors will enjoy performed by some very talented Northlanders” says Tracy Lundeen, expo Producer. “We have professional entertainers and talented youth gracing our expo stages this year- seniors love the variety and will even dance a little.”
