Activities have been happening across New Haven's neighborhoods throughout May - now it's time to learn more about the 'main event' launching in early June in and around downtown. We'll tell you how to get in on all the music, talks, recitals, dance, exhibits, and interactive fun - which is mostly all free!Finally, we'll connect for Part 2 of our conversation with the person heading up Connecticut's Senior Medicare Patrol (SMP) through the Western Connecticut Area Agency on Aging. She'll explain how scammers can cleverly begin taking advantage of you, and how occasional unintentional and intentional billing mistakes are adding up to billions in losses to the program.
