Fairfield, Conn. – The Fairfield Chamber of Commerce, in conjunction with the Norma Pfriem Breast Center at the Park Avenue Medical Center, have updated and announced its current list of exhibitors, lecture topics/times, trainings and screenings for its upcoming 2017 Health and Wellness Expo on March 12th.
This free event is open to the public and will be held at the beautiful, brand-new, state-of-the-art, Yale New Haven Health Park Avenue Medical Center, Trumbull, CT, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Attendees will also have the opportunity to tour inside the building, including the extensive art collection, as well as outside the building, with a walk through their attractively designed, Healing and Meditation Garden.
The Fairfield Chamber of Commerce is so appreciative to be working in conjunction with the Norma Pfriem Breast Center as the host. This stunning building is the perfect venue to host such an important educational exposition. Food trucks will be on site throughout the day, to serve attendees beverages and food items of their choice.
Collins Medical Equipment, who just celebrated its 85th Anniversary last year, is taking a lead role not only as the event sponsor, but helping to carefully organize and create an event which will be informative and educational at the same time.
Lecture Series:
The Lecture series will be given throughout the day, each topic running for approximately 45 minutes, starting at 11am. Presenters will be available after each lecture for continued conversations, if needed. Seats are limited, so it is strongly recommended for guests who are interested in attending a lecture that they register in advance. This can be done by calling the Chamber office: 203-255-1011 or reserving a seat online: www.FaifieldCTChamber.com.
