Annual Health Fair On Saturday 

The annual Great American Health and Public Safety Fair is scheduled for 10 am to 2 pm on Saturday, September 18, at the Newtown Middle School on Queen Street. Admission is free.

 This year’s fair will include many regular favorites as well as several new health practitioners and some alternative health information and ideas. There will be more than 50 exhibitors this year.

There will be poster contests for school children in grades 1–5 and a contest for middle school students in grades 6 and 7. Applications will be sent home with children through the schools.

The Newtown Chamber of Commerce will give away a mountain bike provided at cost by World of Bikes of 317 South Main Street during a drawing at 1:30 pm at the health fair. The drawing is open to everyone. The bike will be an appropriate size for the winner. Registration blanks are available through most merchants in Newtown, the Booth Library, the Health District and other locations throughout town.  An entrant need not be present to win.
