Garland will be hosting another Healthy Living Expo this year, at the Curtis Culwell Center (4999 Naaman Forest Blvd, behind Wal-Mart).  It starts at 9 a.m on September 19th and continues until at least 1 p.m.

Parking is free, and there will be lots of free hand-outs available from the various booths (which offer short presentations on various topics).  They also have free health screenings for things like cholesterol, blood sugar, vision, and even bone density. 

They also give us a chance to unload the following items:

Ø Used medical equipment like wheelchairs, scooters, walkers, bath chairs, etc. (outdoor collection run by Comfort Keepers)

Ø Old bicycles (outdoor collection run by Spokes for Folks)

Ø Eye glasses (indoor collection run by the local Lions Club)

Ø Shoes (indoor collection run by The ShoeBank)

Ø Misc household items (collected outdoors by Goodwill Industries)

Ø Paper documents (up to 4 boxes per vehicle, outdoors, run by Alliance Document Shredding)

Ø Unwanted medications (collected indoors by the Garland Police Dept)

Ø Junk electronic devices (collected outdoors)

Ø Plastic bags, drop cloths, stretch-wrap, etc (collected indoors)

Warning:  The Cullwell Center building has a security policy that limits what you can carry inside.  Only clear and small “clutch bags” are allowed inside.
