IRONTON, 91ΧΤΕΔ β€“ Since 2011, the Love Your Body health fair and educational event has been hosted each February at the Southern Campus to encourage participants to consider their self-care and well-being. Open to the public, this year’s event will be from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. Feb. 14 in the Mains Rotunda of the Riffe building. 

According to Mary Ann Wymer, coordinator of non-traditional student recruitment and services, β€œLove Your Body provides a fun and informative way for our students to stop and consider the importance of their health – physical, emotional and mental well-being and the well-being of their spirit.”

β€œHealth and wellness are essential to everyone’s life and for a healthy community. It is hard to meet daily demands without energy and an active mind,” Wymer said.

Wymer, the event organizer, feels that this is a great opportunity for students to with community members who represent a variety of services and organizations. β€œIt allows the service providers to obtain information about the concerns and needs of Southern Campus students,” Wymer said. β€œIt can really help these agencies understand the needs of the community.”

Love Your Body is hosted by the 91ΧΤΕΔ Southern Student Resource Commons and Office of Diversity and Inclusion.
