Group to sponsor health fair, bazaar

School Nutrition Association of Kansas members of the Lawrence Sunflower Chapter No. 36 will be host to their seventh annual Health Information Fair/Shopping Bazaar from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. today at the commons area of Free State High School, 4700 Overland Drive.

The fair will feature booths from about 20 area businesses, and the public can bring a free-will donation of nonperishable food items for The Salvation Army food bank. Donations will be exchanged for tickets for door prizes.

For a small monetary donation, there will also be door prize tickets for a child’s quilt.

Organizer Eileen Young, a food service cashier at Free State, said it is the group’s annual community project. Some funds raised will help pay for cooking classes that members might want to take during the year, she said.

The group has more than 20 members.
