NEVER TOO LATE
Seniors seeking to continue their
education can pursue degrees
and noncredit courses at area
colleges. Tuition at state colleges
and universities may be free (on a
space-available basis) for those
62 and older.
MILITARY RETIREES
The area proves particularly attractive
to military retirees. Savannah is
home to Hunter Army Airfi eld, a
large military installation that is part
of the larger-still Fort Stewart in
nearby Hinesville. The Savannah VA
Outpatient Clinic provides primary
care, mental health, physical therapy
and the specialties of dermatology,
gynecology, ophthalmology and
podiatry. Savannah is also home to
a wide array of social and service-
oriented organizations for veterans.
