The 2019 Family Health Festival held on Saturday, September 28th at the Michelle Obama Library was a huge success. Over 300 children and their families were in attendance. Others in attendance include our wonderful sponsors, staff, guests, and volunteers whom made up the 30 various health and wellness booths. This event would not happen without their generous support. Local health and wellness providers and specialists provided health awareness in an effort to motivate attendees to make positive health behavioral changes. Festival entertainment included performances from the Bancroft Middle School Cheer squad and J.D. Dance Company and the guest Mistress of Ceremony for the event was the reigning Miss. Teen Carson Erica Guico. There were also activities for infants, toddlers, and families with special needs and autism. The festival concluded with a special visit from the museum mascot, “Hearty Marty.”
