    Rosa Medina of Toledo holds up her drawing ticket in hopes of winning a free trip at the booth of Lakefront Lines, one of more than 100 vendors at the event. Senior citizens attending the Spring Fling also were able to have their photos taken with Toledo historical re-enactors, watch cooking, home repair, and fitness demonstrations, and get answers to health-care questions. Boxed lunches were offered, and musical entertainment was provided by members of the Bowsher High School pep band and DJ Tommy Ray.
