Frankfort Rotarian Ned Edwards urged us to vote in favor of the millage request on next week's ballot to support the activities of Benzie Senior Resources.
 
Ned is Vice President of the Board of Benzie Senior Resources, which was formed with the merger of Benzie Home Health Care and the Benzie County Commission on Aging.  People over 65 currently constitute 28% of the population in Benzie County, and by 2020 the figure will be 36%.  The demand for home food deliveries and other senior services is growing, and Benzie Senior Resources needs additional revenues to meet the needs of its clientele.
