 Mt. Kisco, NY - Senior citizens will showcase their talents and dance the afternoon away at the annual Talent Show and Golden Harvest Dance on Tuesday, October 7, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., at the Westchester County Center in White Plains.
The Talent Show and Golden Harvest Dance are sponsored by Westchester County Parks and the county’s Department of Senior Programs and Services. The event is open to all Westchester County senior citizens who are 60 years of age and older.
