1.      Jeff Stein – who will discuss important steps to thrive at 75 and beyond so you can keep living as well as “When I’m 64”

2.      Bob Eyre – who will speak about cognitive diseases and what we can do to minimize risks so we “Don’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow”

3.      Mike Rade – who will talk about diet and exercise so we can keep “Blowin’ in the Wind”  

We will also have plenty of time for questions and discussion.
