Fun week for seniors

By TANIA PHILLIPS

COINCIDING with the Queensland-wide celebration of seniors, Rose City Shoppingworld will host a week of activity and entertainment.
Beginning at 10.30am daily from Tuesday 18 – Friday 21 August, the centre will provide free entertainment in the food court, targeting senior shoppers in the centre.
Marketing manager Louise de Lissa said Rose City Shoppingworld was more than happy to provide a week of fun for the town’s older and wiser citizens.
“On Tuesday you can be entertained by the musically talented Jenny Brosnan and on Friday Dalby country musician Dennis Sankey will be entertaining,” Mrs de Lissa said.
“Wednesday not only sees a free to enter spin and win wheel competition but also a variety of exhibits from local organisations with something to offer seniors.”
“We are always looking to try something new, so we’ve decided to host a trivia competition on Thursday morning, just look for the reserved area in the food court,” she said.
“A number of prizes from Rose City Shoppingworld retailers will be up for grabs in both the spin and win and trivia competitions, so make sure you’re there at 10.30am to grab a seat.”
To round out the week, Rainbow FM will be setting up their broadcast station at the top of the travelator on Friday and Saturday.
For more information about Seniors Week at Rose City Shoppingworld, interested shoppers can contact the centre management office on 4667 0142.
