Today I went to the Adventist Health Expo with my awesome dad. It was pretty cool! It was held at one of the biggest malls in Thailand. The mall's name was MBK. They had all these booths with health check-ups, and the NEWSTART Plus program. There was also an ongoing program on the stage where different musical groups performed. There were exercise classes and interviews with doctors and other health professionals.
While this was all happening I was taking video of one of our student volunteers passing out brochures, inviting people to the health expo. When our student volunteers had to go home, I stopped taking video and started handing out brochures. I gave out more than 1,000 brochures that day. A total of 70,000 brochures were handed out! And we had over 2,000 people participate in our health expo over four days. It was really neat how people learned how to take care of their bodies in practical ways. Ways such as eating a healthy diet, and getting plenty of exercise.
Questions:
-Do you take care of your body?
-What kind of exercise do you enjoy?
-Have you been, or helped with a health expo?
