Hayes Green Beach Memorial Hospital’s Women’s Health Experience is an opportunity for local women to focus on their own wants and needs prior to the hustle and bustle of the holidays. The free annual event is from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 18.
The interactive health experience is at AL!VE, HGB’s destination health park, and includes a wealth of information, free lunch, retail vendors, chair massages, wine tasting, prizes and decorating ideas. It has traditionally focused on five dimensions of health and well-being: do, eat, think, breathe and support. There will be several informational booths and interactive activities, and a free boxed lunch is provided by NOURISH by The Big Salad. Each participant receives a gift.
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan is once again this year’s event sponsor. Women’s Health Experience highlights include:
