MIDDLETOWN—The Middletown Community Health Center (MCHC) hosted a health fair at Thrall Park on Aug. 8 under a clear sky and soothing music. Vendors were available to inform and entertain fairgoers.
Heidi Williams was there to ensure that people were aware of the symptoms of Alzheimer’s. She said a walk for a cure in Montgomery on Oct. 3 was their biggest fundraiser.
MCHC was present in many ways. Dietician Kristy Bach shared a healthy recipe, CEO Teresa Butler said why MCHC was sponsoring the event. “We wanted to start a community health fair and do it annually.” MCHS serves 18,000 patients at 11 locations with over 80,000 visits a year.
It's really important to come and talk to the community, and get to know those who we are studying so hard to help.
