Annual Head 2 Toe Wellness 2017 – “Your Best You”

Thursday, August 24, 2017 was a special day for all older adults in Union County. The South Arkansas Center on Aging Education Center (SACOA) held the annual Head 2 Toe Wellness Fair at Champagnolle Landing Senior Center. With over 300 in attendance, this event was a great success. There were over 40 local vendors who made this day so special by donating their services, smiles, and assistance to the older adults in our community. Each vendor donated a $20 gift card to a local restaurant for door prizes. The goal of this day was not only to increase health knowledge and awareness, but to provide our elderly with a few hours of relaxation, support, socialization, and connection with local resources. Judging by the smiles, manicures, massages, full bellies, and stuffed tote bags on the arm of each attendee, this goal was met.

SACOA exists to support and assist senior adults and their families in eight counties in South Arkansas.

We are thankful for the opportunity to join forces with partners and serve our community. Stay tuned for next year’s Wellness Fair!!
