Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Hamilton’s Center for Health and Wellness, in partnership with RWJ Fitness and Wellness Center, will celebrate 20 years of health in Hamilton Township by hosting a free Health and Fitness Fair on Saturday, Oct. 26 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., at RWJ Fitness and Wellness Center and RWJUH Hamilton’s Center for Health & Wellness, both located at 3100 Quakerbridge Road, Hamilton.
The event is open to the public. Activities are set to include wellness programs, cooking demonstrations, health screenings and health information from RWJUH Hamilton, as well as kid-friendly seasonal crafts. Local vendors and self-care stations will also be present.
“Twenty years ago, we promised to do something bold and different: build a medically based fitness and wellness center that would focus on keeping our community healthy and with the proper education and screening, hopefully out of the hospital. We are extremely proud of what our exceptional caregivers and team members at every level have accomplished in the pursuit of that goal,” says Diane Grillo, vice president, health promotions, RWJUH Hamilton.
RWJUH Hamilton Community Health Team: Brian Weiner, director; Wendy Jones, educator; Taryn Krietzman, educator; Joyce Cantalice, manager, Better Health Program; Ines Lecerf, educator; Diane Grillo, vice president, health promotion; Patricia McDougall, educator; Roseanne Sondermeyer, technical specialist; Allison DeBlois, outreach educator; and Shannon Neely, specialist.,
