OAKS PA – A 2025 Senior Fair, intended to provide valuable information about services and programs for senior citizens and caregivers, is scheduled for Thursday (May 1, 1025). It’s sponsored by state 150th House District Rep. Joe Webster.
The events runs from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in Hall D of the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center, 100 Station Ave. It’s free to attend and open to the constituency. Webster represents residents of Collegeville and Trappe boroughs, and Upper Providence, Lower Providence and West Norriton townships.
Advance registration is requested. To get signed up, call Webster’s office at 484-200-8263.
Webster will be joined by officials from several local, county, state, and federal agencies. Having them “all in one place means our seniors can ask questions and find the answers they need, quickly and conveniently,” he explains.
Offering A Wealth of Expertise
Scheduled to attend from the county representatives from the Prothonotary, Treasurer, Voter Services, and District Attorney’s offices; the Office of Aging Services, Clerk of Courts, Department of Public Safety; and others.
Also expected to be available are staff members the office of Congressional Rep. Madeleine Dean, the state Department of Banking and Securities, and the Public Utility Commission.
“I’m excited to hold this event,” Webster adds. “Each day, my dedicated team connects seniors with services they need.” It also offers help in preparing with property tax and rent rebate applications, SEPTA senior fare cards, disability placards, securing food vouchers and other essential programs, he notes.
License Plate Restoration Also Set
In addition to the Senior Fair’s informative sessions, a license plate restoration event will take place during the fair from 11 a.m. to noon outside at the Expo Center’s Hall D parking lot. This separate and special event is designed to help seniors ensure their vehicle license plates meet current state legibility standards.
Registration for license plate restoration is separate from the general fair registration. Advance registration is required for it as well, also by calling 484-200-8263.
Those interested in attending should have their driver’s license number, title number, vehicle identification number, license plate number, registration plate style (standard, personalized, military, special fund, special organization), and registration expiration date available to share over the phone.
For questions regarding either event, or state-related programs or services, call Webster’s office, or send it an e-mail to RepWebster@PAHouse.net.
