Representatives of more than 40 different vendors from throughout the area – as well as all 15 of SCC’s Health Sciences programs – will be in the Burrell Building on Southwestern Community College’s Jackson Campus from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 1, in Sylva, for SCC’s annual Health Fair.

There is no charge for admission to the event.

An American Red Cross blood drive (10 a.m.-2:30 p.m.) will coincide with the Health Fair, which will also feature a “Delete Blood Cancer” bone marrow donor registry.

Flu shots are free for SCC employees; insurance will be filed for – and payments will be accepted from – all others. Door prizes will include massage gift certificates and gym passes.

Community vendors include hospitals, fitness centers, food banks and more. The SCC bookstore will offer 20 percent off one qualifying item.

Plus, Mad Batter of Sylva will bring a food truck.
