Summer 2009  

Community Health Fair

Darcy Meeks Perry and her son Declan, of Wardsboro,
were among the crowd enjoying the DHART helicopter.

Smiles were all around during the 2nd Annual "Spring Into Health" Community Health Fair, especially among the kids when the DHART helicopter landed! Hundreds of people had lots of fun and benefitted from valuable information and health screenings provided by more than 50 participating organizations. A record was set when Julia Fillion, age 8, of West Dover ascended (and descended) the climbing wall 55 times!

"I thought it was an absolutely great event," said Dick Kraft, of Andover, VT. "I was amazed at the variety and number of organizations there, and the enthusiasm was outstanding. I couldn't believe the amount of work that must have gone into organizing such a large event."

Special thanks to Community Health Fair sponsors Chittenden Bank, Richards Insurance, Windham Foundation, and Howard Printing. Tim Johnson's live broadcast on WTSA during the day added to the excitement.

Plan to join the fun for next year's Community Health Fair, on Saturday, May 15, 2010.
