The
Van Buren County Child Abuse Prevention Council will be sponsoring the sixteenth
annual Safe and Healthy Kids Fair. The event will take place on Tuesday, July 30,
2019 at the Roberts Memorial Building in Keosauqua from 5:00-7:00 p.m. and is
open to all Van Buren County residents.
The
fair theme this year will be “Building Your Future” with many fun games and
activities for kids. As always the fair
will focus on keeping kids, ages 0-18 in the county safe and healthy. Topics that will be covered include: child
abuse prevention, nutrition, mental health, dental, immunizations, lead
poisoning, fire safety, literacy, quality child care and preschools, parenting
skills, and many more. Last year 20-25 exhibitors participated in the fair.
All
school-aged children attending Van Buren County Community School District and children
homeschooled in Van Buren County will receive a free school supply voucher if
they attend the fair (child MUST be present). Handouts promoting health and
safety will be given to each child as well as other community services. A free book and backpack will be given to each
student who attends the fair (child MUST be present). A raffle will also take place where prizes
will be given away.
