We are so grateful for the 50+ local, regional, and statewide organizations that have come together to support this year’s Health Fair. These organizations offer health screenings and lab draws, provide informational booths, support education tables, and sponsor the event to bring these resources to our community. Be sure to stop by the event to support your individual and the community’s health and wellness.

This year we are serving breakfast! Prepared by some of Pagosa’s local food industry favorites, the meal will feature locally grown and sourced ingredients and will be available from 7:30am. to 10am. The keynote presentation, Caring For Your Brain Across the Lifespan, by Dr. Arturo Montaño, MD, a Board-Certified Neurologist at Pagosa Springs Medical Center, will take place in the auditorium from 9am to 10am. You won’t want to miss this timely topic, which will explore practical strategies for keeping the brain healthy as we age, along with risk factors, prevention, and treatment options for common neurological conditions such as dementia, Parkinson’s disease, stroke, and nerve damage.

You can still register online today until 12 noon or simply show up on Saturday to participate in this year’s Archuleta Health Fair. Sign up for low-cost wellness labs, participate in health screenings, talk with healthcare agencies and community organizations, and visit health and wellness vendors.
