Tick Safety at the Amherst County Wellness Fair

  • Amherst County High School 139 Lancer Lane Amherst, VA, 24521 United States (map)

Come by the Amherst County Wellness Fair in support of your health and well-being!

We’ll be there talking about how spending time in nature contributes to whole-body well-being. And of course, because we want you to go outside more often, we also want to make sure you stay safe! Tick-borne diseases are prevalent in the central Virginia area and are often misdiagnosed. We’ll be giving a short talk about which ticks are in our area, which diseases they carry, how to lessen your risk, and how to get help if bitten.

We hope you’ll peak your head in to the talk and then swing by our table!
