A one-day-only community health fair is coming to Harrisonburg tomorrow, and folks can leave the checkbook at home.

It’s set to run from 9 until 1 tomorrow at the Lucy Simms Continuing Education Center. While this is not a general health clinic, staff from Sentara R-M-H will help visitors learn about certain cancers and diseases and host a mammography van for women.

They’ll also have stations where folks can screen for oral cancer and high blood pressure, which Sentara Diversity and Inclusion Manager Silvia Garcia Romero told Early Mornings can be a critical first step.

Visitors can also hear from guest speakers and, according to a release, enter to win door prizes.
