May is older American’s Month - In April 1963, President John F. Kennedy and members of the National Council of Senior Citizens designated May as “Senior Citizens Month,” the prelude to “Older Americans Month. The theme for Older American’s Month 2018 is ‘Engage at Every Age’ – you are never too old (or young) to take part in activities that can enrich your physical, mental and emotional well-being.
