"Planning for the Future"
Spring 2026 Panel Discussion
This spring, Forest Lake area seniors and their families joined us for “Planning for the Future,” a free panel discussion connecting attendees with trusted local experts. Panelists covered real estate decisions for aging in place or downsizing, elder law essentials like estate planning and power of attorney, and financial planning strategies for retirement security. Attendees had the chance to ask questions directly and walk away with clear, practical next steps, no pressure, just straightforward guidance from professionals who know the Forest Lake community.
