County businesses and organizations are invited to bring their
health-related offerings to the 2018 Wellness Expo on Saturday,
February 17 from 9am – 1pm at the Lincoln Park District. The event
is expected to bring over 600 community members together in
celebration of healthy behaviors.
Plans for the 2018 Wellness Expo include free inflatables for
children of all ages, a variety of free health screenings, recycling
opportunities, interactive exhibits, great prizes, giveaways,
cooking demonstration, and much more. Healthcare career information
and a healthy kids cooking activity will be new to the event this
year.
“Go, Slow and Whoa Your Way to Health” is the theme of this year’s
event building on the Coordinated Approach to Child Health (CATCH)
messaging that is currently in over 15 area schools. The “Go, Slow,
and Whoa” terminology teaches students about different types of
foods that should be eaten all the time, sometimes and only every
once awhile.

Collaborative.
