***PREREGISTER HERE FOR SENATOR RITCHIE'S SENIOR HEALTH AND WELLNESS FAIR***
State Senator Patty Ritchie is urging Oswego County senior citizens to take advantage of free bus rides to her upcoming Health and Wellness Fair, which will take place on Wednesday September 21st.
Made possible by Oswego County Opportunities and Exelon, busing will be available on three separate routes including Constantia and Phoenix; Sandy Creek, Parish and Mexico and Oswego, Hannibal and Fulton on the day of the Senior Health and Wellness Fair.

“I want to make sure that every person who would like to attend my Senior Health and Wellness Fairs has a way to get there. I would like to thank Oswego County Opportunities and Exelon for providing busing that will help more people take part in this important event, which offers seniors a day of fun, friends and learning how to stay healthy as they age.”
