Switchbacks Entertainment Announces the Return of the Health and Wellness Festival at Weidner Field
Switchbacks Entertainment announced today they will hold a Wellness Festival at Weidner Field that will take place on Saturday, August 10th from 7 A.M. until 12 P.M. The day will begin with a 5k, 10k and half marathon race, followed by music and a yoga session in the early morning. The event will also host many wellness opportunities for patrons that are both active and informational, that cover a wide range of topics. Last year, the Health and Wellness was a huge success with over 1,200 attendees, 525 runners, and 115 vendor partners.
“Thanks to the support from all of our local community partners, and the success of the 5K, 10K and Half Marathon run, we are thrilled to announce the return of the Health & Wellness Festival at Weidner Field,” said Switchbacks Event Director, Lee Reijgers. “We knew from day one that there was a void in the community that needed to be filled along with providing this as a free event for our community. The changes that we’ll be making will only help make this a much bigger and better experience for everyone involved.”
