Seniors who are looking to stretch their money can get some help, with information seminars.  Joanne Spoto-Decker, who's director of community services for the Onondaga County's Department of Aging and Youth, says the hour long sessions will have information on Medicare Prescription Drug and Part B savings, and will also have help on income-stretching programs like HEAP (Home Energy Assistance) and SNAP (Food Stamps).

The programs are free, and open to seniors, family members and caregivers:
July 20 (Wednesday)   Cicero Library, 10:30 - 11:30
July 26 (Tuesday)         Westcott Community Center, 1:30 - 2:30
August 2 (Tuesday)      Jordan-Elbridge Community Center 1 - 2pm
August 19 (Friday)        B'ville Canton Woods Senior Center 1 - 2pm

Call Aging and Youth at 435-2362 for more information.
