EATON — We had a blast celebrating Older Americans Month at our annual Senior Day Celebration on May 8. We had over 350 participants this year, which is a record for the Preble County Council on Aging!

It was great to see familiar faces, and new ones. Thanks to the 30 vendors that participated, our staff, volunteers, sponsors, speakers, and all the seniors who came out to celebrate with us!
