The Health Education Carnival: Giving the Old Health Fair a Facelift.

Watts, Parris R.; Stinson, William J.

Health Education (Washington D.C.), v12 n6 p23-25 Nov-Dec 1981

A new approach is presented to the organization and supervision of health fairs. The "Health Education Carnival" differs from the health fair in two ways: (1) It does not include health screening tests; and (2) Allied health professionals attend the fair in costume. Evaluation techniques and follow-up methods for the health carnival are described. (JN)
