The Westside Community Health Fair will move to Magic Island Park after two years of exponential growth. “Each year, we’ve been able to add more community health providers, more partner organizations, and more attendees,” said Bishop Haley. “Having the Health Fair at Magic Island will allow us to accommodate more attendees, provide more services, and make a bigger impact on the west side.”
Many organizations & vendors will be at the event providing a wide range of services for
the community such as:
● COVID-19 test kits
● Blood pressure tests
● Flu shots
● HIV testing
● Kids activities, including a climbing wall and a mobile gaming truck
● Bonnie’s Bus, which provides low-cost mammograms
● Other free or low-cost health screenings
