KALAMAZOO--Western Michigan University's 2011 Health and Wellness Expo will take place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 9, in the Student Recreation Center's indoor tennis courts.

This free event for members of the University community, including retirees, allows attendees to learn about the health and wellness resources available to them at WMU and in the community.

There will be a wealth of information about everything from dental health, nutrition and diets to ergonomics, safety and financial wellness. In addition, the Sindecuse Health Center will be holding a flu and meningitis vaccination clinic during the expo, which also will feature chair massages, exercise equipment demonstrations and giveaways. The Kalamazoo County Health Department will provide a limited number of HPV shots at $15 for those without insurance coverage.

Free parking will be allowed in Lot 13 and the Ellsworth Parking Structure only.
