MONTREAL, Sept. 28, 2012 /CNW Telbec/ - The Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN), in cooperation with Seniors Action Quebec, is holding a National Senior Day Information Fair that encourages seniors to remain healthy and active by getting involved in their communities and helping those less fortunate.

When:	Monday, October 1, 2012, starting at 9 a.m.
Where:	Holiday Inn Midtown, 420 Sherbrooke West, Montreal

The main focus of the fair is to create a win-win situation for our community by connecting seniors with volunteer activities that keep them healthy and active while, at the same time, providing services that benefit the community.

The information fair also allows seniors to become familiar with community programs and services while learning about businesses and organizations that provide services to English-speaking seniors.

Finally the fair also features five conferences on healthy active aging and the personal and community benefits of volunteering.
