Franklin YMCA promotes wellness with health fair

With the new year comes an influx of people desiring to get healthier, and the Franklin YMCA encouraged members of the community to visit its ninth annual free health fair Monday to do just that.

More than 40 vendors from the Franklin area participated in the day’s fair, offering free massages, health checks and juice samples to the approximately 300 guests who attended.

“January is the time of year when people are more likely to get healthy,” said YMCA Membership Director Susan Sistrunk.

In addition to locally-owned businesses interacting with the community, Sistrunk said the fair was a way for the Y to provide the assets needed for those looking to get in better shape.
