Eastern Nebraska Office on Aging (ENOA) (www.enoa.org)Nutrition Division, in partnership with the City of Omaha Parks and Recreation, is pleased to bring you the 2nd annual Fundraising Walkathon to help support ENOA’s 28 senior centers in the five-county area. The walk will be held on Saturday, August 20, 2016 at Benson Park in the historic Benson area.  Registration opens at 8:30 a.m.; the event will begin at 9 a.m. and will also include a Lifestyle Expo which will be open until noon. Funds raised will help update programming, entertainment, and bring in additional resources that will assist the seniors with maintaining their independence in their homes as long as possible.  Register today to receive the Early Bird Special of $15! Every registration comes with a FREE water bottle, FREE lunch, FREE raffle entry, and a FREE bag!

ENOA Nutrition provides nutritional support to those over the age of 60 through the use of the senior centers. These locations serve as more than just a place to receive a nutritious meal; seniors are able to be a part of something to give them purpose through volunteer opportunities and socialization while also having access to community resources and assistance with aging issues.

For additional registration or event details, please contact Yvette Steffen at (402) 444-6513 or via email at yvette.steffen@nebraska.gov. For more information about ENOA’s Fundraising Walkathon, please visit www.enoa.org or www.stepoutforseniors.weebly.com.
