The Passport to Wellness trade show and exhibition is set to take place on Saturday, Oct. 21 and Sunday, Oct. 22 at the Heritage Inn.
Event organizers look to make this the premier health and wellness exhibition in the province.
With a focus on health and well-being spanning a lifetime, all ages and lifestyles will be represented and there’s something for everybody.
“This showcase for health and wellness is like using your compass to find the wellness needs that fulfill each of your individual needs,” explained Michelle Power with Fit 4 Life Moose Jaw, who is one of the organizers for the event.
The exhibition gives local businesses and practitioners a great opportunity to demonstrate their work and spread awareness of their services. Designed as a one-stop opportunity event, anyone seeking to learn more about health and wellness is invited to stop by and see what Moose Jaw and area has to offer.
Many who attend are likely to discover a new business in the area that they never knew existed.
Vendors come from a wide array of backgrounds and specialties, and together they represent the mind, body, and spiritual aspects of well-being. Their goal is to help you stay in the best possible health and state of mind during your personal journey.
The event aims to include around 40 vendors, and most spots have already been filled.
One of the confirmed vendors is Fit 4 Life in Moose Jaw.
Fit 4 Life is a unique fitness company designed exclusively for women’s fitness needs. The company allows women to reach their fitness goals in a supportive and educational environment. They also host a specialized 30-minute program designed to speed up metabolism, burn fat, and help with weight loss. More information can be found by calling Fit 4 Life at 306-693-5239.

The event will also feature a speaker’s corner, which can be thought of as “an event within an event” according to Power. For the speaker’s corner, four presentations will be made each day and spots can be booked on the hour.
The speaker’s corner allows select vendors to showcase their service and talk for around 15 minutes about the health-giving benefits they can offer and some deeper insights into their product. St. John’s Ambulance is one of the vendors scheduled to give a presentation.
The Passport to Wellness event will be held at the Heritage Inn in Moose Jaw, located at 1590 Main Street North.
