AARP/Walgreens Wellness Tour Arrives Thursday
The Senior Friendly Extravaganza! is returning to the Harborside Event Center in downtown Ft Myers, on Thursday, October 22, from 10am until 4pm, and among the many great attractions will be the AARP/Walgreens Wellness Tour!
During the Senior Friendly Extravaganza!, a bundle of six health screenings, valued at more than $140, will be administered for FREE! These screenings include cholesterol, blood pressure, bone density, glucose, waist circumference, and BMI.
This tour arrives in Ft. Myers as part of a 3,000-community, two-year national mobile health screening tour with a goal of providing more than $60 million worth of free health screenings. The tour aims to administer more than 2.5 million free screenings and is comprised of nine custom-equipped buses with dedicated staffs of Walgreens trained medical technicians. This is the fifth year that Walgreens has committed to providing free health screenings through a traveling health screening campaign.
The Senior Friendly Extravaganza! will once again provide the same great entertainment that it always has Live Music, Prizes, Classic Car Show, Health Screenings, Grandkids Photo Contest, Bingo, Free Coffee & Donuts, A Taste of Retirement Living and more!
Every year, over 5000 seniors attend this FREE event. They visit the over 100 exhibitor booths for information on health and wellness, travel, senior living, home health, insurance and finance, and much more.
Major advertising partners for the Senior Friendly Extravaganza! are WINK-TV, The News-Press, Breeze Newspapers, WAVV Radio, and Mature Lifestyles magazine.
