We had a great group of walkers join us for our first “Step into Senior Day” walk at the fair! A little mud didn’t slow us down on Senior Day. Our walkers enjoyed getting some steps in, taking in the sights and sounds of the fair, and having fun along the way.
This fun walk was part of National Falls Prevention Awareness Week and was led by our Stepping Up to Prevent Falls Coalition and our partners at Unity Community Center and joined by OhioHealth Grady staff members, local residents, and fair attendees.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make our first walk a success! #FallsPreventionAwarenessWeek #StepIntoSeniorDay #FallsPrevention
