October 27, 2024

Delaware Resorts Expos will host its eighth annual 55+ Expo from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 2, at Cape Henlopen High School in Lewes.

The event is free to the public, and all ages are welcome to attend.

This year, the expo will host the Blood Bank of Delmarva’s portable donation station for a blood drive to help meet the needs of so many communities impacted by this season’s hurricanes. To make a donation, go to delmarvablood.org. Walk-ins will be accommodated as space allows Nov. 2.

Lead sponsor Beebe Healthcare will be providing free health screenings and evaluations, and free flu shots. 

Exhibitors include health and wellness firms, medical facilities and services providers, home healthcare agencies, lifestyle coaches, physical therapy providers, physical fitness programs, 55+ residential communities, Realtors, home builders and renovators, insurance and financial firms, and home product and service companies.

Many exhibitors will be offering expo specials, and give away gifts and prizes.

Additional sponsors are Aetna, Aquacare, Avery Hall Insurance Group, Baird Mandalas Brockstedt & Federico, Blue Rock Financial Group, Custom Fit 360, Coastal Bath, Delaware Retiree Connection, Orthopaedic Associates of Southern Delaware, Cape Gazette, Sussex County Women’s Journal and WMDT 47/ABC.

Meals on Wheels Lewes-Rehoboth will again be the beneficiary. Representatives will be on hand to provide information on the organization’s valuable services and how people can help.

“Our Fall Home Expo, recently held in September, was well attended despite the tropical storm. We look forward to giving visitors another opportunity to see a wide range of new products and services designed for the 55+ community,” said Kathy Benson, Delaware Resorts 55+ Expo founder and organizer.

Refreshments will be available all day thanks to ZoZo. The beautiful hardcover 2024 Delaware Beach Book will be given away while supplies last. For more information, go to deexpos.com.
