Event Details
Date and Time
Mark your calendars! The Health and Wellness Fair is happening on Saturday, September 16th, from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Plenty of time to swing by, even if you’ve got errands to run. Or, you know, just wanna sleep in a little. No judgment here!
Location
The fun will be unfolding at the Easton Community Center, right in the heart of town. That’s at 366 Sport Hill Road, Easton, CT 06612. You can’t miss it!
Admission
Guess what? Getting in won’t cost you a dime! Admission to the Health and Wellness Fair is totally free and open to everyone. So bring your friends, bring your family, bring your neighbor who’s always giving you those suspicious side-eye looks. Maybe this will help!
Featured Activities and Exhibitors
Health Screenings
Want to get a quick check-up without the hassle of a doctor’s visit? You can take advantage of free health screenings, including blood pressure checks and glucose testing. Stamford Health is providing these, so you know you’re in good hands.
Fitness Demonstrations
Feeling a little sluggish? Local fitness studios will be putting on demonstrations of all sorts of workout routines. We’re talking yoga to get your zen on, Zumba to shake your groove thing, and strength training to, well, get strong! They’re encouraging everyone to wear comfy clothes and jump right in. No pressure, though! You can just watch if you want… which, let’s be honest, is probably what I’ll be doing.
Nutrition Workshops
Ever feel lost in the grocery store, trying to figure out what’s actually healthy? Registered dietitians will be leading interactive workshops on healthy eating habits, how to plan your meals like a pro, and how to actually understand those confusing food labels. Finally!
Exhibitor Booths
There’s going to be a whole bunch of health and wellness vendors there, offering information on everything from massage therapy (yes, please!) to acupuncture, chiropractic care, and a whole lot more. It’s a great way to discover some new ways to take care of yourself.
Community Involvement
