Centenarians Will Be Honored at Special Celebration in May

 

County residents who are ages 100 and older or will turn 100 in 2023 will be honored in May at a special celebration. Montgomery County Recreation is now seeking to identify those residents so they can be invited to the event.

Family or friends of a centenarian living in the County who wants to be part of the celebration are asked to fill out this online form or contact the senior programs team at rec.seniors@montgomerycountymd.gov.

In filling out the form, include the centenarian’s name and address and the contact person’s name, email and telephone number.

The deadline to submit information is March 10.

This is a Montgomery County, Maryland announcement.

Living to be 100 years old is a blessing but also may be a curse, haha.  I notice that the deadline to submit is on my birthday, haha.

What a thoughtful way to celebrate the life of those who have managed to live to 100 years old.

What fun, Roy. My aunt died this past year exactly four months to the day before her 10tth birthday. Love that your area celebrates people who've lived this long.

It seems a lot of younger folks are leaving this earth young; but at the same time there are many who are hitting the 100 year mark.
