Empower Brokerage career field agents attend the Senior Synergy Expo at the Amon G. Carter Exhibit Hall in Fort Worth, May 9th. Regional Marketing Director, Sheri Emerson, says it’s a wonderful opportunity for the agents to engage with seniors and to help answer their insurance-related questions.

The Expo is for those 50 years old and older. Judge Glen Whitley says, “This expo will allow seniors the opportunity to network and learn more about services offered here in our great county.”

Classes offered by the Tarrant County Master Gardener Association include Kitchen Gardening – growing herbs in your windowsill, container gardening, growing vegetables in containers, and growing succulents.
