Florence Community Health Fair


Florence Community Health Fair
March 13th, 2004 10 am to 4:30 pm Florence Events Center 715 Quince Street, Florence Oregon		Sponsored By Coastal Fitness & Nature’s Way
The Florence Community Health Fair gathers all aspects of good health together annually to promote access to health care providers, services and businesses in our community. We believe a healthy lifestyle includes the physical, emotional and spiritual bodies. We have succeeded in having each of these areas represented at the Health Fair with a focus on local organizations and businesses. We have built a strong partnership within the health care community, uniting traditional and complimentary medical practices, support groups, senior services, healthy food and fun through physical movement. We believe in having free access to the Health Fair. We have something for everyone including a dedicated Children's Fair within the Fair. The participation of organizations such as Peace Health, Lane Community College, Western Ambulance, the Florence Police Department as well as local groups and businesses has fulfilled our ideal of a community working together to promote vibrant health. Exciting News…. The Florence Community Health Fair is now a non-profit organization. \| Floor Plan \| Children's Fair \|
