50plus Life, formerly 50plus Senior News, is a regional, monthly newspaper for adults over 50 in Central Pennsylvania. The publication has grown to six unique editions in Chester, Cumberland, Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon and York counties. For 20 years, 50plus Senior News was focused on its central motto, its tagline, its mission: Redefining Age. It’s a large-scale ambition that was the heartbeat o

f 50plus Senior News’ 241 monthly issues.

50plus Life picks up that mission and carries it one step further, recognizing that in terms of living fully and enthusiastically, today’s boomers and seniors have not only redefined life after 50, but age itself — the number — has also become secondary to attitude! In addition to the obvious cover changes, there are some changes inside 50plus Life, too. A larger typeface to increase readability; updated column headers and some new stylistic flourishes; and a few new faces added to the roster of recurring columnists. And though there some changes, readers will find many features they have always enjoyed and come to expect: articles about travel, family, health and wellness, lifestyle, and finance, as well as local happenings, puzzles, and profiles of your friends and neighbors. With a new look and a new name, 50plus Life reflects the lifestyles and attitudes of today’s boomer-and-beyond generations.
