First ever WWAY Senior Expo a big success

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) —  It was a hot day outside Thursday, but inside Wilmington’s Independence Mall, hundreds of senior citizens got some important info about services and products just for them. It was WWAY’s first ever Senior Expo.

40 vendors were part of the event. They offered advice and services in areas like healthcare, senior living, insurance, finance and more.

It’s part of our effort to be part of your community.

We want you to know you can count on us for more than the news you already enjoy. For those at the event, it was a great way to learn.

“I’m new to Wilmington, and I felt like I’d come out and see what services are offered to seniors, get a few tips, get a few tests. And I’m learning my way around, so here I am,” said attendee Ruth Louie.

WWAY wants to thank everyone who took part in the WWAY Senior Expo.

We hope to make this an annual event.
