Over 30,000 visitors wandered through the aisles of the New York Times Travel Show held at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center on New York’s west side this past weekend hoping to pick up ideas for their next getaway and some to become drawing winners.
Healthy Aging® Magazine, an official media partner of the show, conducted a drawing for four amazing vacation stays. The Healthy Aging® Magazine editors hosted the booth #648. The editors offered ideas to the active adult travelers who were researching where to go for “insider” local experiences, active sports destinations, voluntourism programs, educational and cultural opportunities, retirement relocation, as well as wellness, bucket list and solo travel.
Over 1000 visitors asked to participate in the drawing by having their badges swiped at the booth. The results of the drawing will be announced by February 2, 2018. The winners will be contacted by telephone and/or email address if information was provided. The winners will have 24 hours to respond if they wish to accept the prize. If the winners elect to pass on the opportunity, another winner will be randomly chosen.
To see a list of the winners, check back with the Healthy Aging website.
