The goal of the fair is to increase visibility of health and wellness resources within the community, motivate participants to make positive health behavior changes, provide a variety of health screenings and educational materials, and many more.
In order for these goals to be achieved the organization is asking for help from the community. The committee needs more information on possible health screening booths, demonstrations and exhibits, healthy food preparation tips, advice about proper nutrition, diet and exercise, athletes, sports clubs, information on stress reduction, vitamins, massage therapy, preventative care, and everything else that promotes healthy living.
Another goal the organization would like to accomplish is for the participants of the fair to leave with a better understanding of why it is important to practice a healthy life style. They also want visitors to avail of immediate feedback on health issues, sample nutritious foods and drinks, and listen to motivated professionals, and athletes deliver positive messages to the community.
Possible demonstrations and activities can include but are not limited to CPR, First Aid, martial arts, Tai Chi, aerobic dancing, healthy cooking, and proper use of exercise equipment bike safety, massage therapy, self defense, and Q and A with a doctor or health practitioner.
The committee is inviting several organizations and companies from the community to participate in the event and they are welcoming any suggestions, activities, and knowledge.
Please call 235-7645 or 483-3145 for any suggestions or more information regarding the fair.
