Busy Weekend at the Market!

Wow! What a busy weekend we have, both at the market and around Slidell. This weekend, we are having the 2nd annual Slidell Memorial Health Fair at the Camellia City Market and that coincides with the Olde Towne Antique Street Fair. Luckily, it is going to be a gorgeous weekend to be outside!

So, what is this health fair, you might ask? Well, I'll tell ya. It's from 8:30-Noon in Griffith Park. Slidell Memorial Hospital will have respresentatives there from the Imaging & Cancer Services, the Sleep Disorder Center, the Maternal Child & Parenting Center, Nutrition & Diabetes Education as well as others. They will be performing all kinds of tests such as a grip strength test, body mass index screening, blood pressure screening and cholestoral screening. Of course, if you want to test your cholestoral, make sure you don't eat anything for 8 hours! We want to make sure it's accurate, right.

And once you find out how healthy you are, you can continue to stroll around the market or through all of Olde Towne and enjoy all of the goodies, including fresh fruits and vegetables, homemade baked goods and of course, antiques at the street fair.

If you are still looking for something to do after all of that, you can enjoy Slidell's annual Crawfish Cook-off at Fritchie Park.

Whew, that's a lot! But don't worry, with some careful planning, you can do it ALL!!
