For the fifth consecutive year, the Community Council of Greater Dallas hosted the Family Fit Fest on Saturday, April 25, at The Shops at RedBird in Dallas. The complimentary health and wellness fair was designed for the entire family and included fitness activities, giveaways, health screenings and immunizations. More than 2,000 attendees turned out for the event.

NBC 5’s Brittney Johnson and Telemundo 39’s Martha Minjarez served as emcees of the event and participated in a live cooking demonstration. Additional activities included yoga, CPR training, rock climbing and an obstacle course. Complimentary t-shirts, snacks and food boxes were also provided to attendees.

UT Arlington’s Dr. Mari Tietze hosted the university’s booth and oversaw the event’s survey participation. DFW Hospital Council’s Stephen Love and Harmona Epps also volunteered in the survey collection.
