Emerald Coast Convention Center February 2, 2013 9:30 - 2:00
UF/Okaloosa Saves has an event each year called the Eco-Nomic Living Expo. Our outreach is FREE to the public—it isn’t a trade show event. The event is to raise awareness and educate the community on how to make smart choices when it comes to saving. The event covers topics relevant to Money, Home, Health and the Environment. Our sponsors and exhibitors support these topics.
