The 20^th Annual Health Fair was held at Riordan hall on September 17, 2009.  Over 1100 people attended the Fair.  The Bella Vista Ambulance Service was able to have a table outside at the entrance to the event where we greeted people and were able to tell them about the Ambulance Service, how we work with the Fire Department to provide the best Emergency Medical Service in the State of Arkansas, promote memberships and show them the equipment the membership $$ purchase.  Ann Dahlke, Membership Coordinator, was at the table along with Board Members Carolyn Vandeven and David Allen.  Jared Kesler, Fire Fighter/EMT, Battalion Chief Jim Basse, Firefighter/Paramedic, and Fire Chief Steve Sims, Firefighter/Paramedic, were on hand to talk with people and tell them about the Life Pak 15 and Lucas Automated CPR machine.  

We look forward to next year when we can again meet the citizens of Bella Vista to give them information and answer questions.
