Glimpses of Saipan and Beach Road Magazine are pleased to announce the 2010 Health and Wellness Fair on Saturday, November 20 from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Civic Center Tennis Court in Susupe.
What are the goals of our Health and Wellness fair?
- To increase visibility of health and wellness resources within our community
- To increase personal health awareness among participants
- To motivate participants to make positive health behavior changes
- To provide a variety of health screenings and educational materials
- To provide participants with preventive care information
- To screen individuals for certain conditions
- To enroll community members into social service programs
To achieve these goals we’d like information and health screening booths, demonstrations and exhibits, healthy food preparation tips and 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.
We want visitors to this event to have an opportunity to get immediate feedback on health issues, sample nutritious foods and drinks, take home free health-related giveaways and listen to motivated professionals and athletes deliver positive messages. We want them to come away with an enhanced sense of how to increase their health and improve their lifestyle not only for themselves but also for their families.
Possible demonstrations and activities can include but are not limited to CPR and First Aid, martial-arts, Tai Chi, aerobic dancing, healthy cooking, proper use of exercise equipment, bike safety, massage therapy, self defense, and Q and A with a doctor or health practitioner.
We invite you and your organization to participate in this event. Please call 235-7645 or 483-3145 and look for Susan Marchitti.
Let us work together to educate and raise awareness for a healthier, happier community.
