The 13th annual Explore Retirement Living open house event will take place at 17 life plan communities in Lancaster County on Saturday, Oct. 18, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The event will allow people to visit multiple communities in a single day and gain insights by talking directly to residents who live at each community. People will also learn about wellness programming, clubs, activities, and maintenance-free retirement living for younger retirees who are looking for an active lifestyle.

The event is free of charge. For more information about the open house, visit http://www.exploreretirementliving.org.
