N.C. Center for Creative Retirement and UNC Asheville's Health & Wellness Promotion Department Host Wellness Fair for All Ages

The North Carolina Center for Creative Retirement and UNC Asheville's Health & Wellness Promotions Department will host a wellness fair for all ages from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 15, in UNC Asheville's Reuter Center. The "Live Well" fair is held in conjunction with the Center's yearlong 20th anniversary celebration. The event is free and open to the public.

"This won't be your typical senior wellness fair," said Ron Manheimer, North Carolina Center for Creative Retirement director. "Center members are working with students in the Health and Wellness Department to create a truly inter-generational event that displays the wide variety of wellness pursuits in Asheville."

The fair will feature vendors and information booths from the traditional and holistic health communities, as well as a host of speakers. Presentations will be ongoing throughout day, with talks and demonstrations beginning every 30 minutes. Topics will include organic foods, homeopathy, acupuncture, integrative medicine, yoga, sexuality and more. In addition, students enrolled in A-B Tech's Massage Program will offer free chair massages and healthy food will be provided.

Designated free parking will be available in Parking Lot A on Campus Drive. A shuttle service, running throughout the day, will take guests to and from the Reuter Center. A campus map is available online at www.unca.edu/campusmap/. Driving directions to UNC Asheville are online at www.unca.edu/welcome/directions.html.

For more information, call the North Carolina Center for Creative Retirement at 828/232-5181.
