KentuckyOne Health at the Kentucky State Fair

KentuckyOne Health is proud to be a sponsor / participant of the Kentucky State Fair to be held August 16 – 26, 2012 at the Kentucky Fair and Exposition Center in Louisville. KYOne will have a 30′ x 60′ exhibit in the “Health Horizons” area of the South Wing that will focus on our organization’s new statewide health care structure as well as our leadership in cardiovascular care.

Approximately 60 clinical and non-clinical volunteers will be needed each day to staff the KYOne exhibit during the 10-day event. Volunteers are needed for areas such as registration, health screenings, health information tables and leading visitors through our giant inflatable, interactive heart – a first for the Kentucky State Fair! Volunteers will receive a KYOne shirt, free parking and free admission to the fair.
