Hubbard County Health Fair Success

That's a wrap! The Hubbard County Health Fair was a success. YESS partnered with the

U of M Extension Hubbard County and Parenting Solutions to make this happen. This is the first health fair of its kind in over 15 years. We had 46 community resources present, and an estimated 175+ people walked through! Thank you to Nevis Public School and the Park Rapids ALC for bringing your students to the health fair! Awesome people walked away with awesome prizes! The REAP Grant from the Northwest Minnesota Foundation helped make this event happen! Thank you to our board members who helped cover the table so our director could run around like crazy and ensure everyone was being cared for. Thanks to Coborns, Hugos, Nei Bottling, Clancy's on Island Lake, and 10 Fins for your donations! Thanks to the Park Rapids High School Honor Society students for serving the food!
