Learn how to improve your personal health and the health of the environment all in one event:  Healthy Living Expo 2009 – “Healthy You, Healthy Earth:  Rx for a Better World.” 
The City of Garland, Garland ISD, Baylor Medical Center at Garland and the Garland Chamber of Commerce will join forces on Saturday, May 2, 2009, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the GISD Special Events Center, to look at how caring for both ourselves and the earth creates a healthy lifestyle, and has a positive impact on the world around us.

Learn about “healthy earth” topics, such as recycling, conservation, energy efficiency and alternative fuels.  “Healthy You” will provide health screenings, immunizations, information on prevention services, stress reduction methods, and much more.  The first 1,000 attendees will receive a microfiber, reusable shopping bag containing a variety of gifts and information. The Expo will offer exhibitor booths, free services, demonstrations and entertainment, all focused on helping citizens make positive changes to their daily lives.
