Senior Summit 2022

SILVER KEY TO HOST PIKES PEAK REGION SENIOR SUMMIT:

Area seniors and their families provided with valuable resources and information

Silver Key, in partnership with the Pikes Peak Senior News, invites the community to a full day of festivities on Wednesday, June 15th to support the Pikes Peak region senior community.  Event admission is available at no cost; however, advance registration is required.  Held at the Antlers Hotel-Downtown, the Summit begins with a morning benefit breakfast with proceeds supporting area seniors.  The day’s come-and-go as you please experience will then continue with expo vendors, health screenings, valuable information sessions, raffle prizes/giveaways, refreshments, and more! 

Over 70+ vendors will be in attendance showcasing their information and attendees will be able to visit with each vendor, participate in health checks, partake in helpful information sessions from area experts on a wide variety of aging related topics, and be inspired by dynamic speakers on all things aging and senior related.  “We are excited to be part of this event with Silver Key,” says Anne Jensen with the Pikes Peak Senior News.  “Silver Key’s mission is to serve in partnership with stakeholders to support a healthy quality of life for seniors, allowing them to age safely with dignity and independence, and this event encourages just that.”

This event is more than an expo – it’s a Summit experience!  The purpose is to provide the region with a forum for seniors and their families to connect with area resources and learn and discuss common issues and seek solutions to challenges and changes that come with the universal life experience – aging.  That’s why at Silver Key we say, “Aging is…All of Us!”

The Summit’s Benefit Breakfast and Expo are complimentary to attend; however, upon conclusion of the breakfast program attendees will be invited to invest in the Silver Key mission through a one-time or recurring donation. Additionally, while there is no charge to attend, registration is required.
