The HealthSmart Health Fair Is For YOU

For those of you who participated in the Greater Hall Chamber of Commerce's 2030 envisioning process ... and almost one-thousand of you did ... you will know the number one thing we wanted 25 years from now is a better quality-of-life. The citizen input meetings expressed quality-of-life in many ways, but the one quality underlying all the others was this: we wanted to come through life in better health. Unless we were physically fit, these citizen groups agreed, the other quality-of-life goals would likely never be reached. So, it should be no surprise to you that the Chamber's 2030 committee is launching its action plan with this goal: in the year 2030, Hall County will be the most physically fit county in the state of Georgia. It's a win-win situation ... as you individually get fit and stay fit, the quality-of-life increases for you, and as the health level increases, everything else becomes easier to achieve. This county-wide 2030 effort kicks off next Wednesday ... that's Wednesday, October 24 ... with an all-day HealthSmart health fair at the Georgia Mountain Center. There will be more than 60 booths, with screenings and risk assessments and information and ideas that will help you, your parents, your kids and everybody else enjoy a better quality-of-life. It is free to one and all. Make yourself a promise that next Wednesday YOU are going to start on this get fit/stay fit journey. Mark your calendar - next Wednesday, October 24, at the Georgia Mountain Center. The HealthSmart health fair goes on all day. I'll see you there.
