St. John's Lutheran Hospital is gearing up for its annual community wide "Road to Health" Health Fair on Saturday, April 4, 2009, and is looking for vendors who might want to participate by entering an exhibit.
"In honor of planning for the community's new hospital facility, the theme for this year's fair is 'The Road to Tomorrow's Health,'" commented Susan Horelick, RN, and Health and Wellness Manager at St. John's. "We are looking for health related organizations and businesses who want to bring awareness to their products and services. We try to keep the fair interesting and interactive, so we encourage our vendors to do more than just display their wares. Interactive exhibits always get the most attention."
The St. John's Road to Health Fair celebrates health and wellness with the community by bringing together numerous wellness related displays and activities including reduced or free health screenings, body mass index testing, bone density testing, blood typing, blood pressure checks, blood sugar level checks, health club and fitness activities for kids of all ages, skin care, emergency services, and many other health related products and services.
Exhibit space rental at the fair is $30 for those vendors who are selling items and $10 for those who are just displaying and educating. "With over 800 people attending the fair each year, it's a very inexpensive way to get your wellness word out in the community," added Horelick. "We only have a limited number of exhibit spaces available, so if folks are interested they need to contact me as soon as possible." Proceeds from the fair go back into the event to offset the cost of the facility rental.
If you are interested in entering a booth at the 2009 Health Fair, please call Susan Horelick at 406-293-0164.
