AgeSpan’s 50 on the Field at Riverwalk Pavilion 10/4
AgeSpan is celebrating its 50th anniversary and 10-year lease renewal at Riverwalk Innovation District and with a special 50 on The Field event on Wednesday, October 4.
AgeSpan Chief Executive Officer Joan Hatem-Roy and Sal Lupoli, President and CEO of Riverwalk Innovation, were joined by AgeSpan employees, volunteers, and supporters as we kicked off this milestone year on the Pavilion Field at Riverwalk from 12 to 1:30 p.m.
“This event is a way for our staff to show its support to Lawrence and the Merrimack Valley as we prepare to mark our half-century of service in 2024,” says Hatem-Roy. “Today is also the beginning of our 50th anniversary campaign to bring awareness to aging.”
Following remarks by Hatem-Roy and Lupoli, citations commemorating our 50th anniversary were presented by Bree Cunningham, the Director of Adult Protective Services for Executive Office of Elder Affairs, and Ruby Murphy, Director of Constituent Services for Congressman Seth Moulton (MA-06)
Aerial drone photos and videos were taken as AgeSpan staff gathered to make the number “50” on the field.
Food was provided by Oka DeChef through the Revolving Test Kitchen (RTK), a shared culinary workspace in Lawrence. The RTK is a collaboration among the Lawrence Partnership, Lupoli Companies, Northern Essex Community College, the City of Lawrence and EforAll/EparaTodos and is managed and operated by Foundation Kitchen.
