WILMINGTON, OHIO — Members
of the Wilmington Savings Bank Clinton County Senior Center are invited to a
free cookout lunch to be followed by an informative presentation on senior
scams.
Wilmington
Savings Bank will sponsor the cookout on Friday, July 15, at the center, 717 N.
Nelson Ave. The cookout (featuring picnic fare like hamburgers, hot dogs, etc.)
will start at noon.
A representative of The Ohio Attorney General’s office will give
the consumer awareness program at 1 p.m. According to the OAG web site, seniors
are particularly vulnerable to fraud and scams, but many incidents likely go
unreported. The program presenter will focus on the latest scams targeting the
senior population and share how seniors can protect themselves and loved ones.
“We are pleased to offer this cookout and glad to schedule this
program for seniors in the community,” said Tom Burns, president of Wilmington
Savings Bank, which made a major financial gift that helped build the center in
2001.

affiliated with, the Ohio Attorney General’s Office. The Ohio Attorney
