Getting you better acquainted with the health-related services available in your community is the goal of the Community Healthy Living Fair hosted by the Door County YMCA at its Sturgeon Bay Program Center next month. Sponsored in part by Door County Medical Center, the October 21st event features screenings for vision, hearing, diabetes, blood pressure, and skin, flu shots, and lectures by local doctors. The Community Healthy Living Fair comes at a time when the weather starts to turn and people start staying inside more. Sturgeon Bay Healthy Living Director Sarah Gavin hopes locals take advantage of the opportunity to connect with the services they may need, but never knew existed.

Gavin adds that more services and vendors are being added to the event, which will run from 8:30 a.m. to noon. If you would like to attend but do not have a ride to the Door County YMCA in Sturgeon Bay, contact the Door County Transportation Department.
