During fire season and throughout the pandemic, first responders and health care professionals come to our aid. The Heroes of Healthy and Safety Fair honors these individuals and also highlights their services. Included in the event are free COVID and flu vaccines, health and dental screenings, fluoride treatments, and a Jaws-of-Life demo. There will even be a giveaway of kids’ bikes and helmets, and rescue vehicles will be on hand, too. This free event happens on October 16, 10 a.m.–3 p.m., at the Lake County Fairgrounds in Lakeport.
