Troy Township Educates Seniors on Staying Safe

Shorewood, IL- A joint effort between local law enforcement agencies, service organizations and residents and Troy TRIAD is bringing another program to the seniors of Troy Township.

Join Troy TRIAD on Wednesday, December 14, 2011 from 9:00 am to 9:45 am as Denise Schmidt, Owner of Groups on the Go Travel Club and Fundraising, discusses ways for seniors to travel safely this holiday season and throughout the year.

“Whether traveling by plane, train, automobile or boat we travel the globe in search of adventure, relaxation, education or just plain fun. Safety is of paramount importance. Before embarking on any adventure, even if it is just across town to visit grandkids, it is good to know what to expect, or at least have the means to deal with unforeseen difficulties. Learn travel strategies about crime prevention, food/drink safety, how to spot a "Travel Scam" and keeping your children safe away from home. Denise will also be covering tips and tricks for travelling with mobility issues and maintaining your health while away from home,” said Schmidt.

The program is open to all residents of Troy Township and will be held at the Troy Township Community Center located at 25448 Seil Road in Shorewood. The event includes free admission and free parking but seating is limited. Please call 815-744-1968 to reserve your seat today!
