Health and Wellness Fair was identified by partners as an action, that when combined with other actions in our community, that has a reasonable chance of making a difference in cardiovascular disease in our community. This is a ongoing program in our community.

The priority population/customers for this health fair are adults and youth, and the health fair aims to make a difference at the individual level. Implementation will take place in October 2022.

The health fair is free, and open to the public. Local and regional health providers attend, which will allow citizens to make connections, and allow providers to begin identifying individuals who may need their services.

The partners for this Health Fair include:

We were able to hold our "Well-O-Ween" Health Fair in 2022. This was the first time since COVID-19 began in 2020. We had 172 participants come through the Health Fair and we had 21 vendors set up. We had many compliments from participants and vendors saying how great the Well-O-Ween was and how much they enjoyed their time here. We are starting the planning process for the 2023 Well-O-Ween and hope to have even more vendors and community members participate. The overall satisfaction rating was 95%. 

We held our Well-O-Ween Health Fair on October 16, 2023. It was a cold and rainy day but we had 177 participants come through and 14 vendors set up. Due to the weather, and not having any indoor space to hold our Well-O-Ween, our numbers were down for both participants and vendors. Also our satisfaction rate was down to 84%. We had many compliments about the vendors that were set up and the information they were providing. There were also several comments about having Well-O-Ween indoors next year or having an indoor option as back up incase of bad weather. Overall, the Well-O-Ween was a success and we had a lot of children and vendors show up in costume which added to the fun. We are starting the planning process for the 2024 Well-O-Ween and hope to increase our vendor and participant numbers.
