Hartford Health Expo Slated Where The Goats Graze

HARTFORD, CT — Area residents are invited to the home where the Goats graze for an expo that just might improve their health or, even, save their life.

In partnership with the Hartford Yard Goats, ConnectiCare will host the inaugural ConnectiCare Healthier Futures Wellness Expo.

The event is expected to provide health screenings, vaccinations, social services, family fun, food, giveaways, exercise demonstrations and more to support the health of local communities and residents.

It will take place at Dunkin’ Donuts Park, 1214 Main St., Hartford, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Expected to be on hand are top Connecticare executives, Yard Goats officials, Jenny Boom Boom, who is a Hot 93.7 radio host and event emcee, as well as representatives from Access Health Connecticut, CT Foodshare, Junior Achievement, Hartford Boys & Girls Clubs and more.

Parking at the event is free of charge, thanks to the Hartford Parking Authority.

For those who need transportation to and from the event, Connecticut has suspended bus fares across the state until Dec. 1.

CT Foodshare will be giving our bags of healthy food, while supplies last.

The event will include a “Kids Zone” with family-friendly activities for children of all ages.

ConnectiCare and its parent company, EmblemHealth, launched the series of wellness Expos in response to the pandemic’s severe impact on accessibility to essential health care.
