The Patrick County Long Term Care Committee announced that the annual Community Health Fair will be held on Friday, October 11 at Rotary in Stuart. The fair, which has been held for over 35 years, features vendors, food and entertainment, and is free to the public to attend.
Beginning at 9:00 participants will be able to enjoy a light breakfast of muffins and coffee while browsing the vendor tables. The fair will last until 2 p.m., with a free lunch served at noon for the first 100 attendees. The Landmark Center will be providing chicken and dumplings and Brunswick stew for vendors and attendees.
In addition, a Lunch and Learn by the Patrick County Sheriff’s Department will begin at 12:15, and this year will address Current Scams and How to Protect Yourself. Hackers and others looking to cheat unsuspecting web uses are continually updating their methods and means, and a sheriff’s office representative will be there to discuss some of these newest scams and what to do if you suspect you have been a victim of a scammer.
Each vendor attending will be giving away a goody basket of great prizes, and drawings will be held throughout the event. Winners must be present to claim their baskets.
No registration is necessary, and everyone is welcome.
