Celebrate Wellness and Fun at the 2024 Garrett County Family Fun Festival and Health Fair
The Garrett County Steps to Better Health Committee is thrilled to announce the much-anticipated return of the Family Fun Festival and Health Fair, scheduled for Saturday, April 6, 2024. Held at the Community Aquatic & Recreation Complex (CARC) at Garrett College in McHenry, this event promises a morning filled with excitement, education, and engagement for the whole family.
Marking the occasion in conjunction with the nationwide “Week of the Young Child” from April 6 to April 12, the Family Fun Festival underscores the importance of early childhood development. Recognizing the pivotal role of these formative years in shaping future success, the festival aims to provide positive learning experiences while promoting overall health awareness for attendees of all ages.
From 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., families can immerse themselves in a diverse array of activities and attractions, all offered free of charge. Children can enjoy an assortment of games, a delightful photo booth experience, and the chance to win one of eight bikes with helmets in an exciting drawing. Meanwhile, adults can explore informational booths hosted by community providers, offering valuable resources and insights on health and wellness topics.
“The Fun Fest and Health Fair is an opportunity for our community to come together in celebration of health and happiness,” remarks Amy Ritchie, Steps Committee member and dietitian at the Garrett County Health Department. “It’s a chance to learn, play, and connect with one another in a positive and supportive environment.”
