*By Daily Press staff*

The Third Street Promenade will be filled with older Santa Monicans on Thursday, May 8.

The Bayside District Corp., in collaboration with the city’s Commission on Older Americans, will host Senior Day on the outdoor mall.

Senior Day is one way to recognize that particular segment of the Santa Monica community and is presented for adults 50 years old and older.

The first 400 seniors to register for the day’s activities will be treated to free dancing and live entertainment, with raffle prizes to be awarded during the day. Lunch will be served, a $1.50 donation is suggested.

Senior Day will kick off at 9 a.m. when check-in starts on the Promenade between Arizona Avenue and Santa Monica Boulevard. The day’s festivities run until 2 p.m.

The Bayside District Corp. is a non-profit entity established in 1984 to oversee the activities of downtown Santa Monica and the Promenade.

The Commission on Older Americans works in an advisory capacity to the Santa Monica City Council and city management on matters pertaining to the senior community.

For more information or to volunteer, call (310) 458-8644 or (310) 576-4754 at least three days prior to the event.
