Free blood pressure screenings by the Ridgefield Visiting
Nurse Association (RVNA) are the latest health and wellness service being
offered by your Library. From July 13th
through the end of December, RVNA volunteers and nurses will be on hand on the
2nd Wednesday of each month from 11:00 AM to 12 noon. Look for the sign-in table in our Main Lobby;
no appointments are required, and the service is provided free of charge.
This new service is a perfect fit with several other initiatives
currently underway, including our two-year partnership with Lyme Connection and
Smart Revenue to build a model community response to end Lyme Disease. In
addition to continued Lyme awareness and prevention education, our Summer
Reading Program theme of exercising your mind and your body will include several
meditation and healing workshops for adults and entertaining and educational
encounters with bugs for children.
Also on tap is a series called Summer of Running, supported
by our Noreen L. Papa: Mothers Live your Life Fund and featuring a wealth of
activities related to running in Ridgefield and around the world. Watch also
for announcement of a date for this year’s RVNA flu shot clinic at the Library
in the fall.
