Winter Health & Wellness Fair

Quiet Strength Health and Performance has partnered with University of Illinois Extension to deliver an engaging and informative health and wellness event for our community. 

The Nutrition and Wellness Fair will focus on bringing interactive and educational content, with a particular emphasis on kids and families.

What to Expect!

Our goal is to make wellness education fun, approachable, and memorable! This monthly event will feature interactive exhibits, cooking demonstrations, hands-on workshops, and various activities that promote healthy living. Kids and families will get to explore topics like 

• Healthy Eating Habits
• Smart Food Choices
• Easy Recipes and Cooking Tips
• Physical Activities for Kids and Families
• Gardening Basics
• Local Agriculture

Why This Project Matters

This collaboration with the U of I Extension is a significant opportunity to increase our community impact. Illinois Extension has a long-standing reputation for providing practical, research-based education in areas like health, nutrition, youth development, and environmental stewardship. Their mission aligns perfectly with our goal of making a lasting, positive impact in the Quad Cities.
 
We are particularly excited to focus on engaging kids because we know how critical it is to instill healthy habits at an early age. By bringing the fair next to the Food Pantry, we’re reaching families who are already connected to local food resources, and we can help them take the next step towards healthier living.
